Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
½ cup powdered sugar
½ cup shortening
½ cup butter, softened
2 tbsp. milk
2 tsp. vanilla

½ tsp. salt
¼ tsp. baking powder

Directions:
Directions:
Heat oven to 350ºF. In large bowl, cream powdered sugar, shortening and butter. Blend in milk, vanilla and egg yolks; reserve egg whites. Lightly spoon flour into measuring cup: level off. At low speed, blend in remaining ingredients and mix well. Roll out dough on well floured surface to ¼-inch thickness (I find it helps to chill first). Cut with floured 1 ¾-inch round cutter. Place on ungreased cookie sheets.

In small bowl, combine sugar, almond paste and reserved egg whites; beat until smooth. Spread ½-1 tsp. mixture evenly over top of each cookie. Spoon scant ¼-½ tsp. jam onto center of each cookie. Bake at 350ºF. for 12-15 minutes or until macaroon is light golden brown. Remove from cookie sheets immediately.
