This recipe was given to me by a friend, Linda, when we were living in Spokane, Washington and both our husbands were in the Air Force in the mid 80's. It's a favorite cookie of another mutual friend. These cookies are easy and yummy. Cheryl

3/4 c shortening or butter
3/4 c powdered sugar
1 1/2 c flour

Cream shortening and powdered sugar. Blend in flour. Press evenly into ungreased 13x9 inch pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 12-15 minutes.
