Recipe Introduction


Makes 4 dozen.


List of Ingredients




6 Eggs
1 ½ Cups Sugar
1 ½ Cups Vegetable Oil
2 teaspoons Vanilla
4 Cups Flour
2 teaspoons Baking Powder

Recipe



Beat Eggs, Sugar, Oil, and Vanilla until smooth
Mix in Baking Powder and 1 cup Flour at a time until blended – dough will be a cookie consistency

Spoon 2 three inch wide rows of batter on a cookie sheet side by side forming 2 loaves. The cookies will puff up and spread a little while baking, so do not place too close together. If you like longer cookies, you can just put one loaf on each cookie sheet and make it a little bit wider.

Place cookie sheet immediately in the oven or the rows will start to soften and run together.

Bake at 350 degrees for 15 – 20 minutes until very lightly browned and remove from the oven

Slice each baked loaf into 1 – 1 ½ inch wide cookies

Place them on their side on the cookie sheet and brown side for another 5 minutes

Take them out of the oven and turn them over on the other side and brown for another 5 minutes.
