Dark colored and teflon sheets make cookies darken on the bottom before the tops of the cookies are done. Do not wash cookie sheets between batches or grease the pans if shortening is called for in the recipe.

Be sure that the pan is almost cool before putting a second batch on the pan, or the cookies will spread too much. The cookies can be placed on cake coolers to cool, but if you have any cake coolers, a folded dish towel can serve as a substitute. Of course, the fun in making cookies is the tremendous variety that is possible. There are draped rolled cookies, refrigerator, molded, bar Ond pressed cookies, as well as unbaked and fried cookies. Let the children mold the dough after you have it ready.

For fancy dress parties the cookies can be as formal and fancy as you want. Just be sure that the cookie menu is suitable for the occasion. The favorite cookie program is nsored by the Otero County Service, and every- orte is invited to attend, especially those who will take what they learn to other groups.
