- Mix 1 c. sugar, the margarine, shortening, orange peel and whole Large eggs.
- Stir in flour. Shape dough by rounded teaspoonfuls into ropes, about 6" long and 1/4" 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 Tbsp. sugar till foamy; brush over tops of cookies. For holly berries, press bits of red candied cherries on center of knot; add in little jagged leaves cut from citron. Bake till set but not brown, 10-12 minutes. Immediately remove from cookie sheet. About 6 dozen cookies.
