You can also use a slice of apple to store with them to soften them up. Bread pieces or apple also works to soften brown sugar...

I don't like mine soft so you can send them to me!

Its true, check the oven temp with a thermometer. It may be very different than what you think it is supposed to be--let us know what you are baking!

This is the recipe that my DD gave me TERRI'S TEA CAKES 2 cups sugar 1 tsp baking soda 2 eggs 2 tsp baking powder 2 tsp vanilla 2 Tbsp sweet milk 1 cup shortening 3 1/2 cups self-rising flour Mix sugar, eggs, vanilla, shortening, soda, baking powder and milk together in large bowl. Work flour in a little at a time until mixed thouroughly. Roll dough into balls about the size of a quater and placed on greased cookie sheet. Flatten slightly with fingers. Bake at 350 until lightly brown. She and my sister both make these and they are always soft. |
Sound yummy! I would really go back to checking your oven temperature and shave a minute or so off your bake time. There's no butter and its all white sugar, I can't see where there is anything else that would affect the softness of the cookie. Don't trust the accuracy, get a thermometer and bake a few at a time for just one or two minutes less...see if that makes a difference.
