*I tested this recipe with both
Spectrum Organic Shortening and
Nutiva Organic Shortening. We liked the filling texture a touch better with the Spectrum, but used the Nutiva in the Lemon Filling for its natural yellow hue from red palm oil.
**I use a spice grinder to quickly grind the freeze-dried raspberries into a powder. Can't find raspberries? Sub in your favorite freeze-dried berries!
