Personal Notes:
These cookies were one of Grandma Glaze's hallmarks, but I have always had a little trouble with the flour amount and rolling out the dough. If anyone can get this to work, they have found a real gem. This can be spooned onto cookie sheet, iced and sprinkled or made as cut-out cookies.

I have fond memories not only of grandma's visits and the cookies, but of my own children when we visited her in Ohio. She had a basement and would bake before we came. She put the cookie jars in the basement so the kids wouldn't be in them all the time. I can remember the sound of little feet going down those basement stairs!
