About
On Sunday, I shared with you one of my dad's favorite cookies, today is yet another one of his favorites. When I told my husband about this cookie he simply had to try it, so of course I just had to make them for him. To be honest when I was growing up I really didn't like this cookie very much, but as we get older our taste change and I really like them now. I have not tried it but in my opinion I think a nice cream cheese frosting would be a great addition, Ed agrees. It has been really great to share these cookie memories of my loving father with my husband and all of you.
