    List of Ingredients




    3/4 cup vegetable shortening
    1/2 cup sugar
    1/4 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
    1 egg
    2 tsp. vanilla extract
    1/2 tsp. almond extract
    1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
    1/3 tsp. baking powder
    1/2 tsp. salt
    1/2 cup finely chopped pecans
    36 chocolate kisses, unwrapped
    Sifted powder sugar

    Recipe



    Combine the shortening and sugars in a large mixing bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add the egg and the extracts, mixing well. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and pecans. Add to the creamed mixture, stirring until well blended.

    Preheat the ovento 350°. Shape the butter into 36 (1-inch) balls. Press each ball around a chocolate kiss, covering completely. Arrange the bonbons on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake for 12 to 14 minutes, or until just starting to turn a light golden color. Cool slightly on wire racks. Roll the cookies in powdered sugar while still slightly warm, then cool completely before serving.

    Make 1 dozen cookies
