This recipe works well. store these large cookies in a closed container. (Caution, when opening the container the aroma WILL clear your sinuses). It comes right out of the Mennonite Cookbook (Altona Women"s Institute Cookbook). A typical cookie is large and very thick and should look white not browned. With a bit of a fluffy texture.

Jenan Madden, the manager of a book store in Seattle, shared this recipe with The Times. She acquired it as a child from a favorite baby sitter. "The taste is great," she said. "And it's fun telling people what they are called." (Ammonia cookies are in fact made with ammonium carbonate, a form of baking soda, not cleaning ammonia, which is poisonous.)
