2 C Sugar
1/2 C Shortening, melted
4 -1 ounce Squares semi-sweet chocolate, melted
4 Eggs
2 tsp Vanilla
2 C Flour
2 tsp Baking powder
3/4 tsp Salt
1/2 C Pecans
3/4 C Powdered sugar
In a large bowl mix sugar, chocolate, and shortening. Add eggs, vanilla. Stir in flour, b.soda, and salt. Fold in nuts and refrigerate for 3 hours or overnight. Shape into balls and roll in powdered sugar. Flatten slightly on a greased baking sheet. Bake at 350 for 12 minutes. Cookies will not look done, but baking them too long will make them hard.
