    Recipe Introduction

    Nettie Hester, the mother of three boys who were John DeGarmo's friends in Lubbock. John roomed with them during his first year at Tech.

    List of Ingredients

    3/4 cups Crisco (or little less)
    1 cup sugar
    1 egg
    4 cups sorghum
    2 cups sifted flour
    1/2 tsp salt
    1 tsp soda
    1 tsp ginger or cinnamon
    pinch of cloves

    Recipe

    Mix and chill one hour. Roll into one-inch balls and roll in sugar. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 350 for 10 or 12 minutes. Or drop from teaspoon and flatten with damp cloth over small glass and bake without chilling and leave off sugar on top.
    I bake them at 325 so they don't burn so quickly.
