- 1 In a large bowl, cream the shortening and the sugar.
- 2 Take the mixer out and, with a wooden spoon, add the egg, whipping cream, and vanilla until thoroughly combined (it will look a bit "stiff"), but do not whip the cream too much.
- 3 In another bowl, mix the remaining ingredients.
- 4 Add half the dry mixture at a time to the wet mixture. Only mix until it is thoroughly mixed together. Dough will seem sticky.
- 5 Roll dough into 1" to 1-1/4" balls and place on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper.
- 6 Flatten to 1/3" thick with the flat bottom of a drinking glass. They do not spread much when baking.
- 7 Bake at 350 degrees for 12-15 minutes.
- 8 Take the cookies out of the oven and move immediately to a wire rack to cool. Frost and decorate as desired.
