Recipe Introduction


this is a cookie I made in the 70's
it is a fun cookie, you can bend it into any shape while it is still warm
----- timing is everything


List of Ingredients





1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup chopped almonds
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1/2 cup shortening
2/3 cup firmly packed brown sugar





Recipe



Blend flour and nuts in your food processor until the nuts are coarsely ground and incorporated with the flour.

Bring corn syrup, shortening and brown sugar to boil in saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly. When at a full, rolling boil, remove from heat and gradually stir in the flour and nuts.

Drop by teaspoonsful about 3 inches apart onto a well-oiled baking sheet. It is best if you cook no more than 9 at a time to accommodate the spreading that creates the lace effect.

Bake in a preheated 375-degree (F) oven for 5 to 6 minutes, then remove from the oven and allow to stand 5 minutes to harden slightly before removing from pan.
