This is a spicy cookie that’s Mmmm, Mmmm Good! It’s hard to get fresh persimmons these days, but if you have them, this is a great recipe. It’s an original handed down to me by old/ancient relatives, and over 170 years old. These cookies also freeze well. Have fun!

Cream the sugar and shortening together in a large mixing bowl until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, one at a time.
