I love this recipe. I used to make these with Grandma Cheney. I can remember her teaching me how to measure shortening with the water displacement method once when we were making this recipe. I'm sure I was wearing pants I pegged myself and too much eye-liner, and yet she helped me make these delicious cookies. They are so chewy and full of good stuff.
