This recipe came from Mary's mother. Aunt Elsie came to visit and Mary asked Sarah to make these cookies. Not much made Aunt Elsie happy but having these cookies sure did. She even had to double up on insulin so she could have one but did it and said it was well worth it, reminded her of her childhood.
