These were cookies my aunt made all the time when I was little-worth the wait and very good! I have never made them with nuts, but I'm sure they are good with them also. Ingredients:
1/2 cup shortening |
1 cup sugar |
1 egg |
3/4 cup sour milk |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
1 3/4 cups sifted flour |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup cocoa |
1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional) |
Directions:
1. Mix shortening, sugar and egg.
2. Stir in sour milk and vanilla.
3. Sift together flour, soda, salt and cocoa; stir.
4. Add nuts.
5. Chill 1 hour.
6. Heat oven to 375°F.
7. Drop by spoonfuls on greased cookie sheet.
8. Bake 8-10 minutes.
9. • Note: You can use plain milk with 1 tbsp vinegar to sour it. Works as well as the sour milk.
