I got this out of an old Pillsbury cookie cookbook. I used to make them every year-they are very good. Time for baking, does not include chill time for dough. Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups pillsbury all-purpose flour |

3/4 cup sugar |
1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar |
3/4 cup shortening |
1 egg |
2 teaspoons vanilla |
1 cup chopped brazil nuts or 1 cup other nuts |
solid milk chocolate kisses or semisweet chocolate piece |
Directions:
1. In a large mixer bowl, combine all ingredients, except Brazil nuts and chocolate pieces.
2. Blend well at low speed.
3. Stir in 1/2 cup Brazil nuts; mix thoroughly.
4. Chill dough for easier handling.
5. Shape into balls, using a rounded teaspoon for each.
6. Place on ungreased cookie sheets.
7. Bake at 350° for 12 to 15 minutes.
8. Remove from oven.
