Notes: I have many fond memories of days spent with my grandma in her kitchen. I gave her this recipe for cookies and she turned it into a cookie mix recipe! These are the cookies she would usually mail to her grandchildren serving missions. This mix keeps well and is handy to have around whenever a cookie craving hits!
