Great comfort food! Be sure to give them room, they really puff out on the sheet. Thanks Candy C. It's a keeper. -
These are fantastic! I don't know why I have never seen these before, we loved them... Super easy to make too! thank you! -
I just made a double batch of these cookies. They were delicious! I had made a large batch of mincemeat and I was looking for recipes that I could use with mincemeat. These cookies were terrific. I also glazed the cookies. -
These were great. Very hard to keep from eating them! I think I like them more than the mincemeat tarts I made at Christmas. -
Just made them and they dissapeared. Will make maney times. I did add walnuts.

Born in the deep south and raised on good ole southern home cookin' - I've grown to love cooking all types of food and enjoy trying new recipes. I now live in Arizona with hubby. My two sons are attending college and enjoy learning to cook from their mom. They are very good guinea pigs! I'm a substitute teacher at the elementary level and love working with children - they are our future.
