1 cup shortening
4 beaten eggs
2 cups brown sugar
2 tablespoons milk
5 cups flour
2 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 tablespoon maple flavoring
Mix shortening and sugar and cream together. Add milk and maple flavoring. Mix dry ingredients separately and then combine with shortening. Chill dough until cold. Roll dough out onto floured, clean counter top. Use a plastic cup to cut dough into rounds. Bake cookie rounds on greased cookie sheet for 10 to 12 minutes at 350 degrees. You may add a thin layer of brown sugar to top of cookies before baking to make them extra sweet. |
