I made these with the one cup shortening and they turned out great. The husband and kids loved them and when I took them in to work to feed to my coworkers (to get the rest out of my house!) they loved them too!

Found a similar recipe online that called for 1 cup of shortening. Made these this afternoon. They are good, but I don’t usually bake with shortening, so they were a little heavy/oily for me. I think I might try them with margarine and see if it changes them much. I think they would be great with a chocolate filling as well. These are a very good, sturdy sandwich cookie.
