I just want you to know that I commented on this very recipe on March 7 (2009) when you featured the history of the Baking Sheet. This has been a favorite of our family for years, having made it from the original in the Baking Sheet, and we love the spice. So your readers may also like the recipe as it was in the original as well. I never used the shortening, though, using butter as my own substitution. It is nice to know that a simpler version is also worth trying. Caryn, I remember that - but COULD NOT for the life of me think where I'd referenced this recipe in the blog before, and so was unable to mention you. Thanks for reminding me - and for connecting here again. Cheers! PJH
