We always had them as kids and I now enjoy making them as well. I add some applesauce to the mix and then let them sit 8 hours or more. They hold together a bit better that way and are slightly chewier...:D I love that they have no flour as I am allergic to wheat too.

I had lost this recipe for several years after moving, so I was delighted to find it on line. These cookies are unique and delicious!!! (HOWEVER, mine are made with vanilla, not almond extract..my family preference. Try both.) Everywhere I take them, people gush and often ask for the recipe (the vanilla ones). I, too, like them crispy. Hint: Drop by spoonful and very slightly flatten. Use parchment paper and carefully remove with thin spatula after a bit of cooling, to avoid breaking them. **Also, great for glutinfree diet...no flour.

An aunt used to make these when I was a kid and I loved them. I was so happy to find this recipe and they're just as I remembered them. My family now loves them too!
