These have been a family favorite for at least 2 generations! Everyone loves their melt-in-your-mouth taste!
I have been making these cookies since I was a little girl with my mom. They are my family's favorite cookie, as well as co-workers, and I make them several times a year. By adding food coloring or sprinkles, you can make them part of a theme for a holiday. I have passed on the recipe to my children and their families and to co-workers and friends. This recipe is an absolute favorite and will always be a part of my baking. The recipe couldn't be any easier and the cookies turn out every single time:)Enjoy!!!
I used this recipe as an alternative to my normal one and thought they turned out pretty good, but it isn't my favorite one. I might use it again
These cookies are my favorite. I make them for Christmas using holiday cutters and Valentine's Day with heart cutters. For Valentine's Day, I dip half the cookies in semi-sweet chocolate. These are so yummy, everyone in my family enjoys them.
These buttery, melt-in-your-mouth cookies are a holiday favourite. Add a festive touch and decorate them with green and red sprinkles. And be sure to bake an extra batch, you'll want to keep them on hand for unexpected visitors.
