Hanukkah Cookies Recipe
Yield: 1 ServingsRecipe by luhu.jp
Ingredients:
1/2 cup: Shortening, (margarine OK)
1 cup: Sugar,
1: Egg,
1/2 cup: Orange or pineapple juice,
2 tsp: Baking powder,
2 1/2 cup: Flour, plus extra for rolling
Directions:
1. In bowl, add ingreds in order stated, mixing well after each addition
(you can do it in a processor too).
2. Using half of dough at once, roll on floured board.
3. Cut into holiday shapes. [The set I inherited includes lion - of Judah
(Maccabee), dreidel, candel, star of david. Im sure similar cutters are
available in local Judaica or such shops, or by mailorder.]
4. Can decorate (lion eye, dreidel lines, candle tip, etc.) with chocolate
chip, raisin, sprinkles, colored sugar, etc.
5. Bake at 325o for 10 mins or so (I switch pans top-to-bottom and 180o
midway) till lightly browned. Harden a bit more as cool.
Freeze well, but they wont last that long. Makes about 6 doz, depending on
size of cookies.
NOTE: If making different shapes, try and make all of one shape on a tray
so that different sizes dont bake at different rates and then some will
burn and others will be raw.
