These are the best cookies ever! Everyone loves them and they are always the first cookies to disappear off the platter. They are so fast and easy to make. My son requests them quite often. Yummy! :)

Were such an easy, fast and tasty cookie. I don't have the time or the skill to get fancy and these were great!

I loved these cookies. In fact they are so good, I will have to make a double batch for this years cookie swap just so I can have plenty to eat at home. They are extremely easy to make as well.

I make these every year!!! They are the yummiest cookies ever! A little tip for all you bakers... you should try toasting the flour and nuts before mixing then let cool and then finish the recipe. It really brings out the nutty flavor!!!!!!
