Original Recipe Yield 4 dozen
 

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup shortening
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon almond extract
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons lemon zest
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries

Directions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, cream the shortening, sugar, egg, milk, almond extract and lemon zest. Mix well after the addition of each ingredient. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt; blend into the sugar mixture. Fold in the blueberries. Cover and chill for 4 hours.
  2. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Drop dough by teaspoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets, about 1 1/2 inches apart.
