  1. greenfrogfairy REVIEW:

    Cookies had a flavor similar to a shortbread, but were soft and light. The batter is very soft. You really need to "drop" the batter into the sugar and just roll it around. It might be a good idea to chill the batter first. I will make these again with the addition of chopped pecans and a little grated orange peel.
