MEEMAW'S KITCHEN SINK CHRISTMAS COOKIES image

I LOVE TO THINK OF DIFFERENT THINGS TO THROW INTO COOKIE DOUGH. I REALLY LIKE THIS RECIPE BECAUSE IT HAS PUFFED RICE IN IT. GROWING UP MY MOM ALWAYS HAD PUFFED WHEAT & PUFFED RICE IN THE PANTRY. I AM GOING TO USE THE HEATH CHIPS THAT ARE CHOCOLATE COATED.
