We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

Christ will never be found the Savior of those who know nothing of following His example. Saving faith and real converting grace will always produce some conformity to the image of Jesus (Col. 3:10).

INSTRUCTIONS

The 3rd place winner in the Chicago Tribune's 1996 Annual Holiday Cookie
Contest; by Marilyn Cahill of Chicago, Illinois.
1. Heat oven to 350'F. Beat 3/4 cup of the sugar, butter and lard in large
bowl of electric mixer on high speed until light and fluffy; about 3
minutes. Add egg yolk and vanilla; beat until smooth. Beat in flour,
cinnamon, anise seed and salt until well mixed. Stir in pecans.
2. Roll walnut-size pieces of dough between palms to make round balls. Put
remaining 1/4 cup sugar in pie plate; roll dough balls in sugar. Place
balls 5 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Press each ball with bottom
of a glass dipped in sugar to about 1/4-inch thickness.
3. Bake 10 minutes. Reduce oven to 300'F and continue baking until lightly
browned, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove to cooling rack.
Test Kitchen Note: An additional 1/2 cup butter can be substituted for the
lard. Also, you may bake the cookies at a constant 325'F; cooking time
should be about the same.
