I tried these cookies some time ago when a friend of mine who is Native American made them for one of the Pow-Wows that we put together. They were awesome. I finally got the recipe from her and was shocked with one of the ingredients. I made them for my dad and now every year he calls me up and ask me for the recipe so he can make them for his friends.
