Cream the shortening together with the sugar until well combined, then beat in the eggs. In a separate bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients, then incorporate them into the shortening mixture, adding just enough to form a firm, non-sticky dough.

On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out flat. Use cookie cutters to cut out desired shapes, then decorate with sprinkles or colored sugar. Gather the scraps, re-roll, and continue cutting until all the dough is used.
