Directions

  1. Mix together all the ingredients in a bowl, using your hands until well blended.
  2. Using 2 teaspoons place small rounds of the cookie dough on a cookie sheet (do not pre-grease), leaving lots of room between each one, push each cookie down with a fork and bake for approximately 15-20 minutes at 350˚, until the cookies are light beige.
  3. Allow them to cool on the tray for a few minutes, then place on a cooling rack.
  4. These cookies are best when they are a month old. I use a round cake tin, wax papers circles between each layer of cookies, then seal the tin with scotch tape and put this treasure in a cool place for at least a month. Yummmmm!
