I loved these cookies! Mine flattened out like a pancake, but I can alter that next time. They have a crispy crunch and yet are chewey. I was craving something sweet and this was it! Thanks for sharing Jay, I'll make these again for sure! *Made for PAC Spring 2008*

Have been cooking all of my life. Have cooked at such establishments as Applebees and Cracker Barrel and am now starting to expand on my repertoir at home. I love old recipes and cookbooks. Cooking "the way grandma use to make" seems to ring true with anyone and does require a certain feel for food. It might take years and yet, you will always see room for improvement.
