I've had this recipe for many years! I can't believe theres no picture of how adorable these cookies look! Not only are they easy to make but all my nieces nephews and now my kids loooove these. I was sadend because I can't find my book with the recipe but I'm glad it's still on their site. I will continue to make for many years to come.
