Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
Annie Noori is Linda's friend from Waterloo who did not like to cook. She brought these to a Christmas cookie exchange as it was the simplest recipe she could find.
1 cup flour is 125 grams. I cup shortening weighs 190 grams - not the same weight as butter.
To make gluten free :
use Bob's Red Mill one for one baking flour.
roll into small balls (1/2 teaspoon or less) as they spread to make flat cookies
cook for 11 or 12 minutes
