Angel Cookies

Mix shortening with brown sugar and 1/2 white sugar until creamy. Add egg and vanilla, mix well.

In a separate bowl, mix flour, salt, baking soda, cream of tartar, and coconut. Add dry mix to wet mixture and mix until combined. Chill (for at least on hour; we chill overnight).

When ready to bake, pour some water into a small bowl, and the remaining 1/4 cup sugar in another small bowl.

Roll cookie mixture into balls and dip the top into water. Then roll in the sugar mixture.

Grease the cookie sheet. Bake for 12 minutes in a 350-degree oven.
