- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Mix all dry ingredients (not soda), add melted shortening and mix well.
- Dissolve soda in boiling water and add to mixture.
- Mix all together (you may want to get your hands in there). Add a little more water if too dry.
- Form into small little patties about 2 1/2 inches in diameter. Place on a non greased cookie sheet.
- Bake for 15 minutes.
- Towards the end of baking (10 min) lift cookie sheet by edge and drop down to collapse cookie (trust me).
