My Aunt made these and they are one of my favorite Christmas cookies. They
are delicate in flavor and usually a real winner.

Preheat oven to 375F. Mix first 5 ingredients together. Sift flour and
salt together. Stir 1/2 of flour mixture into shortening mixture. Work
remaining flour into mixture with hands until the dough holds together.
Divide dough in half. Mix 1/2 of dough with red food coloring. Pinch off
a bit of white dough and roll into a long cigarette, pinch off a bit of red
dough and roll into a long cigarette. Twist white and red dough together,
place on cookie sheet and bend into a candy cane shape. Bake 9 minutes.
Remove from oven and dust with granulated sugar. The first time you make
them watch the time as your cookies might be larger or smaller than mine
:-).
