This recipe was given to me by a beautician whose mother was an excellent baker. This is really a great recipe; one of her mother's favorites. I'll include the recipe for orange-oatmeal cookies with it. You can be creative and add other ingredients to the basic mix like choc. chips, raisins, M & M's, etc. These freeze well too! Make them ahead and have them for the holidays or when company comes by!
