Recipe Introduction
Ella was a neighbor who was ten years older than God when I was a child. She always had these in her cookie jar, and usually would bake a dozen every day since the dough keeps so well. It is one of my all time favorites and I have never tasted them anywhere else.
List of Ingredients
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups Brown sugar
1/2 cup White sugar
1 cup Shortening
1/4 cup Milk
2 Eggs
2 teaspoons Baking powder
1/2 teaspoon Salt
1 teaspoon Vanilla
Recipe
Cream sugars and shortening. Add milk, vanilla and eggs and mix well. Stir in remaining ingredients and mix well. Refrigerate for about 1 hour. With floured hands roll teaspoonful of dough into a ball. Place on cookie sheet. With three fingers together, press ball flat, leaving ridges down the middle. Bake in 400°F oven for 9 to 12 minutes or until lightly gold. Yield: 48 servings
