I like to make these cookies early Saturday morning. The smell fills my kitchen with awesome goodness. I like my cookie crunchy that is why I roll the dough out. Either way is perfection! If you love chocolate you can eat this cookie filled or just by itself. If I’m feeling adventurous I make mini Ice Cream Sandwiches! Nice summer treat…

Enjoy!

** This is where I tell you that I cook by feel like my Grandmother and Mom did.

I’m passionate about my cooking and food.
