Cream butter, shortening oil and sugar until fluffy. Beat in eggs and
vanilla. In another bowl, combine flour, cornmeal and salt. Add dry
ingredients and almonds to creamed mixture. Knead to form soft dough.
Chill, if necessary. On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to
1/4-inch thickness. Cut with cat-shaped cookie cutter. Bake on greased
baking sheet at 350 degrees until light brown, about 12 to 15 minutes. Cool
on wire racks. Mix confectioner’s sugar with enough milk to spread. Frost
cookies. Use decorator tubes for detail (as shown on TV).
