When we had to go to Idaho last month I brought with me all sorts of ingredients I needed for various things I wanted to cook while there. I needed to keep up the blog! But cooking in various relatives' kitchens was harder than it appeared... As you know , I ended up posting almost nothing during that time, but I did manage to bake these terrific cookies! When it was posted 2 months ago, I had saved it immediately. A must-try. And now I'm finally sharing it with you!
