  1. Terrific cookies that my whole family loved. Young or old, these cookies will make you smile!
     
  2. I remembered this cookie from my childhood too but thought it would be forgotten forever.. Thanks for posting!
     
  3. I, too, made these with walnuts and they are wonderful! A nice change from my regular chocolate chip recipe. Mine look just like the picture. I used a small ice cream dipper and got 49 cookies. I shared some with friends who also loved them. Thanks for sharing this great recipe.
     
  4. My boys are a little picky when it comes to cookies and when i made these i doubled the recipe and in two days they were gone and my family asked me to make more right away. I used regular flour and added 2tsp baking powder and baking soda when i doubled the recipe and they turned out fine. they are great with just walnuts in them as well and go great with coffee. My FAVORITE cookie recipe. Thanks for sharing it.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

<p>Thanks for taking the time to stop by My Page! I am married to a quiet, but fun loving guy who cleans up the kitchen!! I have grandchildren who I adore. I am retired from being a paralegal and a real estate agent. I have also been a substitute teacher for the elementary grades in the public school system. All of my recipes are the tried and true type. Many of them have come from my 48 years of cooking, my mother's recipe box or other relatives. I like Taste of Home magazine and I am a big fan of foodnetworkTV. I am a southern girl and enjoy comfort foods!!! I am a big cookbook collector and have been for years. I enjoy baking desserts most of all. I also enjoy games on my laptop, growing flowers, lunches with friends, babysitting grandchildren, photography and traveling. Since life is so short I try to count my blessings each day and give to the less fortunate. I had gotten into a rut on what to cook. Therefore, I am so happy I found the Recipezaar site. Pet Peeve: People with a negative attitude. MY RATING SYSTEM: 5 stars - Excellent in taste. May have minor change. 4 stars - Adjustment in ingredients for flavor. 3 stars - Fair, but not sure whether I would repeat. 2 and 1 stars - I do NOT give. Zaar EVENTS IN WHICH I PARTICIPATED: Aus/NZ Swaps #15,#16 April, May 2008 Aus/NZ Swaps #20#21#22 Sept Oct Nov 2008</p>
