    I have been using this recipe for years and they come out perfect everytime. If you place a slice of bread in the cookie jar, the cookies will stay fresh for about a week This way, you can mail them to your family and friends.

    It's about time I rated these ,I suppose. I've had this recipe for over a year and I've probably made them six or seven times--they are really wonderful. I just happened to make them a couple of days ago, only to have BF's friends come over to watch the tour de france and eat them all!!! These are great--smaller cookies and really good flavor. The best ones I've made! (Note: I used margarine instead of shortening).

    Otis Spunkmeyer move over! I made a double batch of these adding 1 1/2 tsp of cinnamon because I love the added depth it gives. I used a small cookie scoop and only got 5 dozen cookies so I guess I made them a little larger than the recipe called for and they took just over 8 minutes to cook. I also formed all the dough into cookies and then flash froze 2 dozen before putting them in freezer bags in groups of 6. I wrote the type, date and cooking instructions on the outside. The frozen ones have been as good as the fresh.
