HERMITS
Dress up a cookie plate with these old-fashioned spice bars full of raisins, molasses, cinnamon, ginger and nuts. Then dip the chewy treats in coffee or hot cocoa on frosty days. It's said the cookies are called "hermits" because you can hide them out of sight, just like hermits, for days. They'll be just as good-maybe even better as the flavors blend and develop! -Jeri Tirmenstein, Apache Junction, Arizona

FORGOTTEN COOKIES-DIABETIC
I haven't tried this recipe yet but I couldn't pass up posting it because I don't want to lose it and others might enjoy a "legal" cookie recipe. I'm totally guessing at the yield. Zaar is listing the calorie and fat content (mostly fron the nuts) for a dozen cookines. Dividing 12 into that amount breaks down to each cookie having 33.5 calories. If you wish to lower it more just use less nuts.
