List of Ingredients
Fidos Famous Honey Party Cookies
1 cup vegetable shortening *
1 teaspoon unsalted butter *
1/4 cup egg whites
1/4 cup honey
Food coloring; optional
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1/4 cup cheddar cheese; finely grated
Sesame seeds; optional
Recipe
* For even crunchier cookies, use only 1/2 cup shortening and 1/2 teaspoon unsalted butte
In a large bowl, beat shortening and butter with an electric mixer at high speed until creamy.
Add egg whites and honey; beat until smooth. Beat in food coloring, if desired.
Combine flour, garlic powder and cheese. Beat into shortening mixture. Stir in more foodcoloring if you like.
Gather dough into a ball. Divide it i
n half, then in fourths and so on until you have 36 small
pieces. Flour your hands and roll the pieces into balls. (Or, use a pastry bag to shape the
cookies.) Place them on an ungreased cookie sheet, then use a floured fork to gently
flatten them in a crisscross design. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, if desired.
Bake in a preheated 325-degree oven until firm, about 10 minutes. (To make the cookies
crunchier, after baking, turn off the heat and leave them in the oven about 5 minutes, first
running a spatula under each one so they won't stick to the pan.)
