These are my most favorite cookies of all time. My Grandma Alldredge (my dad's mom), would always make these cookies and have them ready for us when we came for a visit while we were young. I made these the other day for a cookie exchange we were having in Relief Society and they turned out to be a big hit with everyone and I received plenty of compliments. So I thought I would share them on the blog. I hope you enjoy them too!
