These are great for showers, tea times, or just because. These are delicate cookies with an old fashioned taste. I real must in the summer with a glass of lemonade on the side.. I listed shortening or lard. I prefer the lard to be honest. Its not the healtiest choice for some, just the orginal recipe calls for lard. Never messed with perfection when I found it...
Ingredients:
2 cups sugar
1 cup shortening or 1 cup lard
2 eggs
1 cup buttermilk
3 1/2-4 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
Directions:
1. Mix in order given.
2. Drop by spoonfuls on cookie sheet.
3. Bake at 350 until done.
4. Frost with powder sugar frosting. Or just dust them in powder sugar. * prefer that myself*.
