Jumbalo (Italian Cookies)
5 cups flour 1 cup sugar 3 eggs 1 tsp cream of tartar 1 tsp baking soda 1 tbs grated lemon rind 3 tbs lemon juice 2/3 cup white shortening 1/2 tsp salt 3/4 cup milk
1/2 cup chopped nuts 2 oz mini chocolate chips 10 maraschino cherries, drained chopped coarse
For filling, combine nuts, chocolate chips and cherries.
In a large bowl mix all dry ingredients by hand. Cut in shortening as for pastry. Make a well in center and add liquid ingredients. Mix well by hand until stiff dough is formed. Knead on a floured surface briefly to make a smooth dough. Divide into 2 parts.
Roll each part on a floured surface into a 9x 12 rectangle. Spread 1/2 of filling on dough. Roll up jelly roll style. Pinch ends to seal. Repeat with other half of dough. Egg wash tops and sprinkle with a few reserved chopped nuts. Bake 325 for 1 hour or till browned on top. Cool 15 minutes and remove from pan. Slice on the diagonal to serve. Note: dont overbake or they will come out too dry.
