This recipe is from Grandma Polly Brady (my husband's great-grandmother), passed to us through Patty Hawks (our Aunt). Even though my toddler HATES carrots, she LOVES these cookies.
Ingredients:
1 c. cooked carrots, mashed
1 c. shortening
3/4 c. sugar
1 egg
2 c. flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 tsp. lemon juice
What to Do:
1. Cream together shortening, egg and sugar. Add carrots and mix. Then add remaining ingredients.
2. Drop by teaspoon onto lightly greased cookie sheet. Press lightly in the center with a wet finger.
3. Bake 8-10 minutes at 400*F.
Frosting:
Juice 1 large orange and add enough powdered sugar to make it the right consistency. Frost cookies while still warm. (This is really more like an icing.)
