These come from Betty Crocker. They're made with equal parts butter and shortening. The shortening makes these a bit crumbly and I don't like that. They taste very good, though. I flattened my dough balls with the bottom of a measuring cup before baking and didn't do the crosshatch design with the tines of a fork. The cookies in my photo are overbaked by 15 seconds. I'd given them 8 minutes but they're too crispy and flaky. The rest of the batches took just 7:45 at 375 degrees. I'm not sure I'd make these again though they are a good alternative if you don't have the full amount of butter you need but you do have shortening. I do absolutely love the crackle design on top.
I grade these a B.
