I had seen this recipe years ago and again recently on a few sites(allrecipes.com,tasteofhome.com,easteuropeanfoods.com,etc) and I finally tried it...this recipe is a KEEPER. Everyone loved them and it made a nice big batch...usually I like my cookies warm but these got better after cooling. Pictures are not mine...couldn't find the camera charger cord...one of the joys of having a 14 year old :o).
