4 c. flour
1 tsp. baking powder
6 eggs, beaten
3/4 c. sugar
1 c. coconut
3 tsp. lemon extract
1/2 c. shortening, melted

Sift together flour and baking powder. Mix the above ingredients, then roll and make into knots or other shapes. Bake in 375 degree oven until light brown. You may use some dough and omit coconut and add 2 teaspoons anise flavoring.

Note: It is best to roll out all the cookie dough before you start baking. Ice with your favorite frosting.
