Time 40m

Yield 4-5 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 11

12 cups flour
2 cups sugar
3 tablespoons cinnamon
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 1/4 cups shortening
2 1/4 cups lard
3/4-1 cup water
1 1/3 cups sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Sift together all dry ingredients into a bowl and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whip together the shortening and lard until nice and light.
  • Add the dry mixture slowly, one cup at a time (6 cups only first).
  • Place the mixture on the countertop or on a table.
  • Add the remaining dry mixture with the water and continue to knead the dough by hand until you form a good nice dough ball.
  • Sprinkle some flour on the countertop or on the table and spread out the dough with a rolling pin to a thickness of 1/2 inches and use a cookie cutter to make cookies.
  • Place on a cookie sheet.
  • Bake in preheated oven for about 20 minutes.
  • While cookies are being baked, mix together the topping ingredients in a bowl.
  • Once the cookies come out of the oven, place one by one in the sugar and cinnamon mixture one at a time and sprinkle them with this mixture.
  • Place on a cooling rack to finish cooling.
