Recipe's Story:

This is my Grandma Violet’s recipe (her favorite and mine). She and I would make these cookies every time I visited them in the summer. I would always sneak a spoonful of dough when she was tiding up. Now that I think about It, there was never a time she did not have these cookies stored in the freezer in case family came by.
