4 Cups Crisco
2 Cups Sugar
2 Cups Brown Sugar
4 Eggs
Cream together sugars and shortening. Add eggs and beat well.
In a separate bowl whisk together:
9 Cups Flour
2 teaspoons Soda
2 teaspoons Salt
8 teaspoons Cinnamon
2 teaspoons Nutmeg (freshly ground is great)
1 teaspoon Cloves
Stir into creamed mixture a little at a time.
Add:
2 Cups nuts, finely chopped (pecans)
Shape into 2 and 1/2 inch diameter rolls on wax paper. Freeze or refrigerate after wrapping logs in heavy duty freezer foil. Slice roll as thick or thin as you like...try both ways, one is crisper, the other chewier. Place 1 inch apart on lightly greased cookie sheet. Bake at 375 for 5 to 7 minutes. Reminds me of being home for the holidays...My mom has made these since I was a child.
