TOSCA COOKIES (CREAM OF WHEAT COOKIES)
These are not the traditional Cream of Wheat cookies with raisins. Instead, these are Greek cookies, which I understand were traditionally called Fenekia. They are similar to Russian Teacakes. Recipe from villagegarden.com, posted upon request, I haven't tried it yet.
