Chocolate Dip Cookies

This is Grandma Jinny's recipe modified slightly by adding butter to make a more delicate cookie, which is easy to extrude from a cookie press.

Setup: Preheat oven to 325°.

Ingredients:
3½ cups Flour	1 teaspoon Salt
¼ cup {½ stick) Butter	1 cup Powdered Sugar
4 tsp Vanilla	2 cups Rolled Oats
2 Cups Shortening

Method: Cream together Shortening, Powdered Sugar, Vanilla and Butter.
Mix in Flour and Salt.
Add Rolled Oats
Using the Cookie press die with the largest circular opening, extrude a long tube of dough onto an ungreased baking sheet.Multiple tubes may be positioned on the Cookie sheet relatively closely since the Cookie rise very little.
Bake at 325° for 25-30 minutes.
Remove from oven and immediately slice the baked tubes into 1½-2 inch segments.
When cool, ice each Cookie with and cover with Sprinkles (Jimmies).
