- Preheat oven to 400^F.
- In a large bowl, beat shortening and butter until fluffy.
- Add sugar a little bit at a time.
- Add egg yolks, orange juice, and peel.
- Stir in flour with spatula.
- On a floured surface, roll out the dough to 3/4". Cut out 2 1/2" circles and place them on a greased baking sheet. Roll the dough scraps and continue to roll until all the dough is used.
