Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 cup Spry* or 1/2 lb butter
1 cup Sugar
2 Eggs separated
2 cups Flour
2 teaspoons Cinnamon
Nuts; (optional)

Directions

Cream Spry, add sugar slowly. Add egg yolks. Sift flour and cinnamon togerher. Add flour to rest of mixture slowly.

Grease pan and pat dough very thin. Beat egg whites slightly stiff and spread on top of dough. Sprinkle chopped nuts on top. Bake 10 minutes in 375 degree F. oven. Cut in squares while hot and take out.

* Spry was(is?) a solid vegetable shortening like Crisco. No pan size is given. I am guessing a square 8"x8" by 2" pan would work, ungreased.
