COOKIE-BAKING TIPS

Here are some tips for better cookies from Aunt Sandy:

- Don't skimp on shortening.  "A little more won't hurt."  Use the best quality. 

- Use a wooden spoon to mix ingredients.

- "Never overflour your cookie."  If you press your finger into the cookie dough 
  and it comes out clean, you've used enough flour. Better to err on the side of 
  too little than too much flour.

- Always sift flour, even if it's pre sifted.

- Use quality margarine.  Butter isn't necessary.
