MELTAWAY SHORTBREAD 
1 stick butter
1/2 c. vegetable shortening
3 tbsp. sugar
2 scant c. flour
1 c. flaked coconut (Angel Flake preferred)

Cream all ingredients together. Roll it into 2 rolls, wrap them in waxed paper and chill until you can slice them neatly, say 1 1/2 hours in the freezer compartment. Bake on an ungreased cookie sheet at 375 degrees for 20 minutes, until they're a very light brown. Then dip in powdered sugar. Makes about 22.
