The Scent Of Victorian Lace Cookies...mmmmm


You will love these delicate little cookies. They are easy and quick to make and are a wonderful afternoon treat with your tea or coffee.
Ingredients:

1 cup of flour
1 cup of chopped nuts
1/2 cup of corn syrup
1/2 cup of shortening
2/3 cup of brown sugar, packed

Instructions:
Preheat oven to 375ºF. Boil syrup, sugar and shortening over medium heat, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Gradually stir in flour and nuts. Drop by teaspoonfuls about 3 inches apart on lightly greased cookie sheet. Bake 5 to 6 minutes. Remove from oven and let stand 5 minutes, before removing from sheet. May be rolled into cylindrical shape while still warm. If cooled too much, return to oven for a minute. This makes about 4 dozen cookies.
