This recipe is from Jade N Marshall, another cookie maker. I belong to a FB group Christmas Cookie and Candy Exchange. This was a saved recipe and it was the perfect time to make it.

 Porkchop is going home tomorrow and I wanted to make some cookies for the ride home

  1. You must be sending Porkchop home with dozens of cookies. This recipe sounds good too. My cookie baking days are long gone, but I do like to read your recipes. You really should have a bakery.
