GRANNY'S SUGAR COOKIES
This recipe originally comes from the 1941 edition of the Lily Wallace New American Cookbook, which my Great Grandmother (we called her Granny) made a lot of recipes from. Its an amazing cook book! We have made a few variations to the recipe over the years. The original recipe calls for grated orange rhine, but we didn't have any...
