Good recipe. I used palm oil instead of butter flavored shortening and used 3/4 cup brown sugar and 1/4 granulated raw sugar, made them large and baked for 22 minutes. They came out very nice.
I love these cookies and have made them several times. They are a bit difficult to work with. Other reviews suggest adding a couple of tsps of water. I almost added more butter . Next time I will try tweeking the recipe a touch so that the dough is easier to form but I love theese cookies. Thanks for the recipe! * I made them again and added 2 Tablespoons of milk which made them much easier to work with.
This came out pretty good but the recipe's instructions needed several adjustments. The first mistake I saw in the instructions was frying the garlic and pepper flakes for 20 minutes on medium heat. That would have become terribly bitter. Also you should have your shrimp prepared before you turn on the heat. Fry the garlic, red bell pepper, and pepper flakes about 3 minutes or just until the garlic starts to become golden. Then add butter to pan (about another 3 - 4 Tablespoons additional than recipe asks for) and add floured shrimp. Once shrimp becomes golden brown make a well in the center of the pan add 2 T more of Olive oil in well and add in tomatoes. Let tomatoes cook down a bit in the well while frequently turning the shrimp. Once the tomatoes start to cook down add the wine and lemon juice. 2 Tablespoons of lemon seems like a lot. I added only 2 tsp of lemon juice.
