Beat butter, 1/2 cup sugar, the egg, egg yolk and vanilla until light and fluffy. Mix in flour, soda and salt. Dough will be stiff. Cover. Chill 2 hours. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Shape dough by heaping teaspoonfuls into ropes, each 6 inches long and 1/4 inch thick. For smooth even ropes roll them back and forth on lightly floured cloth covered board. On greased baking sheet shape each roll into a figure 8, letting ends extend 1/2 inch. Complete cookies one at a time. Beat egg white until foamy, gradually adding 1/4 cup sugar while beating. Brush tops of cookies with sweetened egg white. Bake 15 minutes. Makes 4 dozen cookies. Posted to recipelu-digest by "Diane Geary" <diane@keyway.net> on Feb 22, 1998
