    Recipe Introduction


    Posted by: gavingrma_OH*******A hint of orange and cinnamon highlights these Christmastime classics. I like to add colorful sprinkles before baking them.

    List of Ingredients




    1 cup shortening
    1 package (3 ounces) cream cheese, softened
    1 cup sugar
    1 egg yolk
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    1 teaspoon grated orange peel
    2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    Green food coloring, decorator candies and colored sugar, optional

    Recipe



    In a mixing bowl, beat shortening and cream cheese until blended. Add sugar; beat until creamy. Beat in egg yolk, vanilla and orange peel. Combine the flour, salt and cinnamon; gradually add to creamed mixture. Add food coloring if desired.
    Using a cookie press fitted with the disk of your choice, press dough 1 in. apart onto ungreased baking sheets. Decorate if desired. Bake at 350° for 9-12 minutes or until set (do not brown). Remove to wire racks to cool. Yield: about 9 dozen.
