1 cup shortening
1 cup white sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup milk
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
In a medium bowl, cream together the shortening and sugar until light and fluffy. Stir in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla. Combine the flour, baking powder, salt and milk, stir into the creamed mixture. Finally, stir in the walnuts and 1 cup of sugar.
Divide dough into two pieces, and roll each piece into a ball.
Bake for 15 to 20 minutes in the preheated oven, until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool before serving.
