Hi!
I am going to try to make my mother's old cookie recipes tonight and I have a question.
The receipes are sort of old and they call for "Crisco" or "Spry". These products seem somewhat old fashioned to me....is it okay to still use those in the recipes? None of the recipes call for butter, but they call for Crisco. Should I make them as called for or subsitute something else for the shortening?
Unfortunately, Mom is no longer with us, so I can't ask her.
Thanks for your help!
