Hi Allison,
How much butter and apple cider vinegar do you put in your batter. I am wanted to make these as my signature cookie for 2020,
This recipe is very nearly identical to mine! I use butter instead of shortening and apple cider vinegar. I actually have people offering to pay me to make these.
