Sherry wafers

48 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 cup Sifted all-purpose flour plus
2 tablespoons Sifted all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon Salt
¼ cup Butter or margarine; softened
½ cup Sugar
4 Eggs
¼ cup Sweet sherry

Directions

Heat oven to 425 degrees. Grease cookie sheets well with unsalted shortening. Sift together flour, cinnamon and salt. Work butter in a bowl until creamy. Add sugar and beat until well blended. Add eggs one at a time and beat well after each addition. Add dry ingredients alternately with sherry, beating well. Drop slightly rounded teaspoonfuls 2 inches apart on prepared cookie sheets. Bake 5-6 minutes, or until edges of cookies are brown. Immediately remove cookies from sheet with a wide spatula, and as each cookie is removed roll it around the handle of a wooden spoon to shape it. If cookies become too cool to roll, return cookie sheet to oven for a minute or two to soften cookies. Cool on cake racks. Makes about 4 dozen cookies.
