Add the egg; beat well. Combine the flour, ground coffee,
salt and baking soda. Add to the shortening mixture; beat

tablespoonfuls 2 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheets.
Bake one baking sheet at a time for 8 to 10 minutes, or
until the cookies are lightly browned and just set. Do no

for 2 minutes on the baking sheet. Remove the cookies to
the foil to cool completely. Penny Halsey (ATBN65B).
