Well……I finally tried them. A while back my dear sister-in-law, Debbie, sent me a cookie recipe. She exclaimed, “These are just the BEST cookies! You must try them.” Well, try them I did and my response to the world is a resounding, “YUM!!!” The nice thing about this recipe is that all the ingredients tend to be pantry staples…at least for me, anyway. I just love it when I have an urge to create something in my kitchen and all the ingredients show up in my pantry. I’m afraid it doesn’t always happen that way. 🙂
Tell me what you think? Will this recipe be a keeper or a tosser for you?
