hi so what do you recommend crisco or margarine
From the looks of the cookies, they have shortening. Also the recipe calls for it. But margarine will yield a moister cookie.
hi so sorry to bother you so what would you recommend crisco or margarine and what did you use, thank you
hi you call for shortening. what is better 8 oz of crisco or 2 sticks of margarine
The Crisco yields a higher and stiffer cookie. The margarine will make them spread.
