Quick and Easy Recipe for making Cookies with Gelatin Mix
Everyone loves homemade cookies but some of us think we don't have the time to make them. Wrong! It doesn't have to take all day or evening to whip out a delicious batch of homemade goodies. For parents or grandparents of young children, I believe it is especially important to have them in the kitchen once in awhile to help you bake. Here is a good simple recipe for those who think they don't have the time! These Gelatin Cookies are good ones to make with children. They love pressing the dough balls down with a sugared glass.
GELATIN COOKIES3/4 cup shortening
1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp baking powder
2 1/2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
1 tsp salt
1 pkg (3-oz) fruit flavored gelatin (your choice)
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
In a large mixing bowl,cream the shortening and sugar together until smooth. Add the dry gelatin mix, eggs, and vanilla; mix well. In a separate bowl mix the baking powder, flour, and salt together. Add the flour mixture to the sugar mixture and mix together well. Roll the dough into 3/4-inch balls. Press onto a greased cookie sheet with a small glass, the bottom dipped in sugar. (Rub a small amount of shortening on the bottom of the glass to get sugar to stick the first time. Bake at 400 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes until lightly browned.
Note: You can add a couple of drops of food coloring to enhance the color of the gelatin, if desired.
Enjoy!
