Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C) and line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners or grease it well.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, cream the shortening and sugar together, then beat in the eggs one at a time until light and fluffy.

  3. 3

    In a small bowl, stir the baking soda into the sour cream until dissolved.

  4. 4

    In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, salt, cream of tartar, and mace.

  5. 5

    Add the dry ingredients and the sour cream mixture to the creamed mixture and beat until just smooth. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups.

  6. 6

    Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until the tops spring back when lightly touched and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring to a rack.
