Chocolate chip cookies recipes are that way too. I love butter and cream too...but somethings turn out better with shortening....Crisco is vegetable shortening and works great for all kinds of recipes. I like cookies made with shortening, they have a better texture and rise up more, butter makes them flat and more greasy. Just my preference. I use Crisco in my homemade yeast rolls, but put real butter, not margarine on them to eat.
Your choice.... Oh, try and find Jalapenos in Europe! My best friend married a bagpiper from Scotland and move there. First time out of the state of TX for her. I sent her Mexican spices and jalapenos all the time....until they moved back to the states.
