My Mom received this recipe from her mother's sister. My family, as well as my other aunts and cousins have all enjoyed these crisp little cookies for years. It's one of our favorites and hopefully it will become a favorite of your family too! (I guessed at the number of cookies the recipe yields--they tend to disappear before I can ever count them)

I wanted to make sugar cookies for v-day and when I took the recipe i had to the kitchen i discovered i didn't have any eggs! After looking around a bit i found this recipe and to be honest i was a bit skeptic. They turned out great tho. They just finished cooling and they are crisp and flavorful. Great recipe. Thanks!

I halved the recipe for this, then added 1 teaspoon of cinnamon. I then rolled the dough-balls in a mix of cinnamon & sugar. They were delicious; like little snickerdoodles. Very crispy, with a hint of cinnamon, sugar, and vanilla. Great for snacking & not overly sweet.
