Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1/3 c Shortening
1 c Sugar
2 Eggs
1 ts Soluble fluid rose
2 c Flour
1/4 ts Salt
1 Egg white
Pink decorators' sugar
Cream shortening, sugar, eggs, and fluid rose until fluffy. Blend
flour and salt; stir into creamed mixture. Dough will be soft; chill
several hours or overnight. Heat oven to 350 F. Roll 1/3rd of dough
at a time on lightly floured board to 1/8" thickness. Cut 4 to 5"
circles; then cut each circle into several quarter moon shapes. Cut
slits on outside edge of each piece and bend it into feather shape,
pinching one end to form quill. Brush with beaten egg white; sprinkle
generously with pink decorators' sugar. Bake 8 to 10 minutes.
Note:
Be sure to use soluble fluid rose (available at drug store) for
flavoring, as rose water is not strong enough for flavor.
