Red candied cherries Green candied citron Recipe by: CHRISTMAS COOKBOOK Mix 1 cup sugar, the margarine, shortening, orange peel and whole eggs. Stir in flour. Shape dough by rounded teaspoonfuls into ropes, about 15 cm long and 1 cm in diameter. Form each rope into circle, crossing ends and tucking under. (This shaping method is easier than the traditional method of tying knots.) Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Heat oven to 400 degrees. Beat egg white and 2 Tablespoon sugar until foamy; brush over tops of cookies. For holly berries, press bits of red candied cherries on center of knot; add little jagged leaves cut from citron. Bake until set but not brown, 10-12 min. Immediately remove from cookie sheet. About 6 dozen cookies. ----
