aunt betty jean's blackwalnut ice box cookies
(3 ratings)
Long before refrigerators we had ice boxes and ice box cookies were today's break and bake cookies, early ancestor. Make these at least 2 days ahead of time. Use only BLACK WALNUTS. This is what my husband refers to as a dunkin cookie. You can soften them up by placing a slice of bread in the container with them. The first time he saw me dunking these in milk at work, he asked if I had any Dutch in my background. There's a lot of Pennsylvania Dutch on both sides....he said he'd never met any one who dunked their cookies who didn't have a least a little Dutch in them.
