In large mixing bowl cream shortening, sugars, peanut butter, baking soda, water and vanilla; gently beat eggs in separate bowl, then add to mixture, mixing well; add flour gradually, mixing well; form small balls and place on an ungreased cookie sheet about 2in. apart; make a crisscross pattern on top of each ball using the tongs of a dinner fork.

Variations: after removing from oven sprinkle with granulated sugar, or use colored sugars, or immediately press a Hershey's kiss into top of each cookie rather than make crisscross pattern.
