Awesome cookies

Mimi from Southport, NC

This was an easy recipe with outstanding results.... I added just a small amount of orange to the frosting. everyone loved them and wanted to know how much I would charge to make them some... Keep on baking

huuuuuge taste

Terry from Boiling Springs Lake, NC

this recipe was not a disappointment. The mix of sweet and tart were just right

new recipe sounds great

Going to give it a try it looks yummy

YUM!

Ally from Indianapolis, IN

I truly think this is the first time I have made cookies on my own from scratch as an adult. Really sad. Anyway, I did not put pecans in my recipe because my husband does not like nuts. I also did not add the baking soda, because honestly, I missed that when I getting everything together. I guess I was so worried when I couldn't find my baking powder (which I found) I moved on. Anyway, these were SO TASTY!!! We had to put them away early because we thought we'd eat the entire thing!

my favorite cookie of all time

Rebecca from Springfield, MA

At risk of gushing, the first time I made this cookie it became my new instant favorite (that's saying a lot compared to my molasses currant cookies). It's an adult cookie - less sweet and more complicated taste than the sugar cookies you feed to kids. And Liz, below, is right about lemon glaze. Fabulous, wonderful, magical recipe.
