This recipe have been past down generation after generation. This is a VERY old recipe (hence the lard) but these cookies are DAMN good. You can get all the dough ready the night before and then let the kids join in on filling the cookies. I have distinct memories of doing that with my grandma. If you have any questions, just give me a shout. I know this recipe can be hard to follow.
