A cookie baker in Canada Dec 22, 2011
Would make this again.
These cookies are yummy and everyone loves them :-) The key to making them good is to make sure and wrap in a thin layer of dough as the dough swells a lot when baked. They look nice with the pecans on top. I will be making these again for sure! i would have given them 4.5 stars but there was no option for that. 4 stars
