I read the other negative reviews after I printed this recipe but before I started mixing the ingredients. I thought replacing the lard with ½ margarine and half shortening would improve the flavor. WRONG! The cookies were bland and flavorless. I also experienced the same problem as others—even after the addition of much more flour and long chilling, the dough was still too soft and sticky to use with cookie cutters. Do yourself a favor and pick another recipe.
