If you like this type of cookie, you'll love these ...and they are easy to make, double the recipe, you'll eat half on your own! Used this recipe over the last 3 years.
Merry Christmas! 5 stars

Would make this again.
I will definitely make these again because they are delicious. I was disappointed, though, because they did not come out of the oven as balls rather they spread and came out like a typical cookie. I specifically wanted a ball shaped cookie. But, as I said they are very tasty. 4 stars

Would not make this again.
These did not hold their ball shape in the oven. The taste is fine but I wouldn't make these again when I can make Bourbon balls that I know will turn out the way I want and don't require baking. 4 stars

These melt in your mouth and instantly transport you back in time to how you wish your grandmothers cookies had tasted. 5 stars
