This is the same recipe handed down from my Great-grandmother with the exception of 2 tsp of vanilla. Mmmh, delicious.

My family loves this recipe. I first had it in 1988. We use a fork to make a criss-cross pattern instead of flattening with a glass, or in addition to that step. Then, we sprinkle with colored sprinkles and serve as Christmas cookies. We use Ruffles crinkle potato chips. These cookies are delicious and very fattening and very addicting. You can't have just one!

If I could add 10 stars I would. My grandmother (god rest her soul) made these for me and everyone I know. people use to beg her for the recipe which she always gave out. My ex husband tossed out all my hand written recipes that included this. thank you for putting this on here. I love these cookies.

These cookies are great. Just to add a really nice finish sprinkle with powdered sugar after cookies have cooled down.

Add Butterscotch chips to it! YUMMO

I just discovered these cookies at a Church Bake Sale. A good friend told me she was baking them and they sounded interesting. I had one and then bought all three dozen that were left. My family loved them and they were gone the same day. Am baking some right now and the smell is mouth watering. So easy and no eggs.

I was given the same recipe by a friend, but her recipe did not use nuts. I made them at Christmas. Some I used colored sugar on. Some I left plain. When the plain cookies cooled I topped them with melted chocolate and a pecan half. The chocolate were my favorite. You could also dip one end in chocolate, then dip into chopped nuts and/or sprinkles. Yum.

These are very good shortbread cookies. I did the same thing that Debi from Idaho does, and used a fork to make a criss-cross pattern, and then added sugar & sprinkles on top to make them a little sweeter (I found that they needed it). Also, there is a minor mistake in the Large Batch ingredients above: Add TWO tsp. vanilla instead of one.

These are some of thee best cookies I've ever had ....

Simple, fun, delicious! Thanks!

Hi one question... can they be frozen. Before my family eats all of them? Thanks... we love them!
