Number Of Ingredients 6

2 eggs

½ teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Mix shortening and sugar well. Add eggs. Mix dry ingredients together and add to shortening mixture until dough is stiff and doesn't seem sticky (you may not need to add all of the flour).

  • Bake on lightly greased cookie sheets for 8 to 9 minutes.
