Cooking Thursday


I made these cookies last week and thought I should share the recipe.  It's an oldie, but a goodie!  My mom made these when I was a kid, so this recipe has been around a while.  She often made them with chocolate chips, but we love them with M&M's.  They're a tender, light cookie and are yummy!

Angel Cookies

1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 cup Crisco
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups flour
16 ounces M&M's or chocolate chips

Cream shortening and sugars.  Add egg and vanilla, then blend in dry ingredients.
Stir in M&M's or chocolate chips.  Drop on ungreased cookie sheet. 
Bake at 375 degrees for 10 minutes or until lightly browned.
