    List of Ingredients




    1 cup Shortening (part soft butter
    or margarine)
    3/4 cup Sugar
    2 Eggs

    2 cup Flour
    2 tsp. Baking soda

    Recipe



    These cookies are made with cooked carrots, so next time you prepare carrots for dinner, save a cupful for these moist golden cookies which stay soft for a long time, if you can keep them! Mix shortening, sugar, and eggs thoroughly.
    Add carrots.
    Blend in flour, baking soda, and salt.
    Stir in coconut.
    Drop dough by the teaspoonful on lightly greased baking sheet about 2 inches apart.
    Bake in preheated 375F oven 8-10 minutes or until no imprint remains when touched lightly.
    Remove from baking sheet.
    Cool and frost with orange butter icing.
    Makes 5 dozen cookies.
