Place the shortening and sugar in a saucepan, mix well, and beat with an electric mixer until the mixture is smooth and uniform. Add the flour, knead, and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Cut into small pieces.

Shape into balls, place a clove on top of each, and after finishing the batch, bake in the oven at 350°F until they turn beige. Remove before they become golden to keep them tender. Enjoy!
