Ingredients
-
4 eggs
1 tablespoon Crisco or 1 tablespoon margarine, at room temperature
1 full cup sugar
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 teaspoons baking powder
4 -5 cups flour
Preparation
-
Beat eggs and margarine until foamy.
Add sugar slowly while beating. Add oil, lemon and vanilla while beating.
Add baking powder to 2 cups of flour, and add the flour to the batter gradually (1/2 cup at a time).
When the dough holds together in a soft ball, you have added enough flour. Cover the bowl full of dough, and refrigerate for an hour.
To form a cookie, roll out a little dough at a time, roll into a log, and fold into a ribbon shaped cookie.
Place cookies on baking sheets lined with parchment paper.
Bake at 350 F (180 C) for 15-20 minutes, or longer if you like them brown.
