GROTE BAKERY TEA COOKIES
1 cup shortening
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 eggs
2 1/4 cup pastry flour
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Cream shortening, slowly adding sugar. Add vanilla and eggs, mixing well. Slowly add flour until blended.
Use cookie press or drop by teaspoonfuls 2 inches apart onto greased cookie sheet.
Bake 8-10 minutes, or until lightly browned.
Makes about 3 dozen cookies.
I found this recipe in the Cincinnati Enquirer archives. The article is here:
http://www.enquirer.com/editions/2003/12/10/tem_saucycook10.html
According to the author, this is the Grote Bakery's version of tea cookies scaled down for the home baker. I only found it today, so I haven't tried it yet. However, the originals at Grote were much like the Tea Cookies at Graeters and Busken's. Unfortunately, it did not come with the recipe for the icing.
I hope this helps!
