What a great tasting cookie! It should be said that these are a very dry and crumbly cookie. I was very surprised when I was preparing these, that the dough was so dry. I kept thinking something was missing. But, they are great. So, as aprehensive as I was, it all turned out. Thanks for a great recipe.
