1 c. shortening
1 c. honey
1 c. brown sugar
1 egg, beaten
4 c. flour - more nutritious with whole wheat
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt - less with butter
2 c. broken nutmeats - I use pecans

Melt shortening; add honey and sugar. Beat thoroughly. Add beaten egg, sifted dry ingredients and mix well. Stir in nuts and drop by teaspoons onto greased cookie sheet.
