My sister-in-law, Ellen and her Mom, Rose have made these cookies since Ellen was a child. She and I made them last year while she and my brother Tom were visiting in Florida. This year, El brought them along when she and Tom came for their annual visit, hooray! They are delicious with tea or coffee, some of us have even been known to have them for breakfast! Enjoy.

1 pound Crisco
