Since We Have A LOT Of Folks Who Are Getting The "Feed Me Sugar'' Vibe From Our Delightful God Of Chaos

Since we have a LOT of folks who are getting the "Feed me sugar'' vibe from our Delightful God of Chaos And Mischief, I would like to share this recipe. It's from an out of print cookbook. I bake a double batch for us to share just because.

My Personal Notes On Baking

Alternatives:

Unsalted butter in place of shortening

2 large eggs work better than 2 small eggs, Extra Large eggs use only one

1 ½ cups brown sugar, ½ cup Zulka Morena Sugar

Methods:

Chill dough slightly, then roll into small balls before baking

Roll dough into balls, then freeze for later baking. Allow to defrost in fridge, not on counter top

I think if the eggs were replaced with vegan substitute it could work. I am NOT vegan and I have zero clue if egg replacers are any good. Have not tried this with whole wheat flour, bread flour seems to be okay, but AP is best. I found the King Arthur AP flour was absolutely brilliant tho
