 * 3 eggs
 * 4 cups flour
 * 1 teaspoon baking soda
 * 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
 * 1 cup of rainbow dust

Directions

 * 1) Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a cookie sheet.
 * 2) Cream butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add vanilla. Beat in eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
 * 3) Sift together flour, baking soda and cream of tartar, then beat into creamed mixture.
