These cookies are so good. I told my husband next time I would add the chocolate chips for him and he said they were great without them. Made for tag-a-thon. Thanks Kittencal for a great new cookie recipe. Bullwinkle

    These are VERY NICE cookies! They reminded me of soft chocolate chip cookies. I didn't find them to have a buttery flavor. I missed having chocolate chips in them. All of my co-workers really enjoyed them as they are though. Made for Zaar Tag.
