This recipe has been in my family for many years. Not sure who it originally came from, but my Aunt shared it with the family and now it is one of our most treasured recipes. My mom makes these cookies all the time. You can throw some frosting on them if you desire. If you like a crispy cookie roll them a little thinner, or if you prefer a cake like cookie, roll a little thicker. Of course, depending on your preferences cooking time may vary slightly. Whatever you desire, make them your own and enjoy. Thank you mom for passing the recipe down to me.
