Personal Notes:
Andy made these cookies over and over in 1976. The page in the cook book is spotted with grease and peanut butter. Andrew wrote that he made these cookies once in 2006. The person that gets this cook book will enjoy the messy, well used recipe. It should go to Andy, with Andrew in line to get it someday.( Betty Crocker Cook Book, It was given to me for a Wedding Shower gift in 1956)
