Ingredients

6 eggs, beaten

1/2 cup shortening

1 cup sugar

1 tablespoon baking powder

1 teaspoon flavoring (anise, lemon or vanilla)

3 to 4 cups flour

Ingredients (frosting)

2 egg white

1 pound confectioners’ sugar

juice of 1 lemon (or lemon flavoring)

Method

Step 1

Cream shortening and sugar. Add beaten eggs and flavoring. Add enough flour to hold together, about 3 to 4 cups. Shape into balls. If hands get sticky, flour them. Put on well greased cookie sheet and bake at 400° for 10 to 15 minutes. Do not over bake.

Step 2

For frosting, beat egg whites slightly. Add confectioners' sugar and enough juice to make thin enough to spread. Frost cooled cookies.
