Homemade Lollipop Cookies image

This is my grandson's favorite cookie recipe. One year he asked me to make them for his kindergarten class. I did, and drove 50 miles to deliver them to his school! The cookies are delicious even if you don't make them into "lollipops." -Flo Burtnett, Gage, Oklahoma
