A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.

My rating is based on my experience of baking and eating "Amish Cookies" with my mother over 30 years ago. My mother would make dozens and dozens every year at Christmas to give to family and friends. I never knew where she actually got the recipe from or if they actually were "Amish" cookies. My mother always made large cookies-about 3" in diameter. I am interested in finding out more about the person who posted this recipe. Thank you.
