Every year before Christmas, my mom and I bake a tin of cookies for each of her sibling's families, our family friends, etc. We use my great-great grandmother's recipes; before she died, she asked my mother to carry on her Christmas cookie-baking tradition. This is one of the cookies we make every year, and my absolute favorite of the lot. I have no idea who Mrs. Schnetsler is, but if she had anything to do with these cookies, she must be great! Cook time does not include overnight chill time.

SERVES 30 -40 , 2 rolls of cookies (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 cup butter, melted
1 cup lard or shortening, melted
1 cup light brown sugar
1 cup sugar
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking soda, dissolved in warm water
4 1/2 cups flour
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1/2 lb coarsely-ground almonds

Directions

1
Dissolve baking soda in a small amount of warm water.
2
Mix all ingredients together.
3
Stir until combined.
4
Roll dough into snake-like logs in wax paper or tin foil.
5
In a cool place (I used the refrigerator), let the rolls stand overnight.
6
Cut rolls into slices.
7
Bake at 375° for about 8-10 minutes (depending on how thick you sliced cookies) or until very lightly browned.
8
Remove cookies from oven.
9
Cool them on wire racks.
