“The original recipe called for 2 cups of shortening, something like Crisco. As I mentioned it’s the only main component I revised; I’ve found that substituting that amount of shortening with 1 cup of butter and a cup of shortening gave them a better taste but also kept the great texture I loved.

“The ingredient list is simple too; although I did have to add shortening to my grocery list since it’s not a staple in my house. Crisco now makes some nice packaged containers that are easy to measure; no more messing with a big can anymore.” Added 11-21-2023
