Directions:Add flour mixture to shortening mixture and work to form a soft dough. Divide in half, wrap in wax paper, and chill for several hours or overnight. Roll into small balls (1 teaspoon of dough in size) and dip the top in white sugar. Bake on a greased cookie sheet for 10 minute at 350 º F. I also put a small piece of red cherry on top for Christmas. |

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
