Preheat the oven to 350°F.
In a #large bowl{}, beat together the @vegetable shortening{1/2%cup} and @sugar{2/3%cup} until smooth. Add the @buttermilk{1/4%cup} and @vanilla{1%Tbsp}, again beating until well combined. The mixture may look a bit curdled, which is OK. Add the @nutmeg{1/8%tsp}, @flour{2%cups}, @baking soda{1/2%tsp}, and @salt{1/4%tsp} to the wet ingredients and beat until the mixture forms a cohesive dough.
Drop the dough in round balls onto a #parchment-lined baking sheet{}. They should be a bit bigger than a Ping-Pong ball, a bit smaller than a golf ball. Using a #cookie scoop{} (or a small ice cream scoop that holds about 2 level tablespoons of liquid) makes this task extremely simple. Leave about 2 between the dough balls, as theyll spread as they bake. If you want a crisp cookie, flatten the cookies as described above. If you like a chewier center, leave them as is.
Bake the cookies for 16 to ~{18%minutes}, until theyre just beginning to brown around the bottom edges. Remove them from the oven and cool on a rack. As they cool, theyll become crisp. If you want them to remain crisp, store them in an airtight container when theyre totally cool. If you want them to get a bit chewy, store them in a bag with a slice of apple. [- To make 4 cookies, make balls of dough about 2 in diameter. Flatten them and bake as directed above. Yield: about ten 4 cookies. -]

## :pencil: Instructions
### Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
### Step 2
In a large bowl, beat together the vegetable shortening and sugar until smooth. Add the buttermilk and vanilla, again
beating until well combined. The mixture may look a bit curdled, which is OK. Add the nutmeg, flour, baking soda, and
salt to the wet ingredients and beat until the mixture forms a cohesive dough.
### Step 3
Drop the dough in round balls onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. They should be a bit bigger than a Ping-Pong ball, a
bit smaller than a golf ball. Using a cookie scoop (or a small ice cream scoop that holds about 2 level tablespoons of
liquid) makes this task extremely simple. Leave about 2 between the dough balls, as theyll spread as they bake. If
you want a crisp cookie, flatten the cookies as described above. If you like a chewier center, leave them as is.
### Step 4
Bake the cookies for 16 to 18 minutes, until theyre just beginning to brown around the bottom edges. Remove them from
the oven and cool on a rack. As they cool, theyll become crisp. If you want them to remain crisp, store them in an
airtight container when theyre totally cool. If you want them to get a bit chewy, store them in a bag with a slice of
apple.
