Notes: Every visit to Wisconsin we would return 10 pounds heavier from Aggie's cooking, including her famous cutout cookies. Aggie must have made at least 10 batches when the Maryland Defnets came to visit and would store them in large ice cream pails in her garage to keep them cool. We hadn't had these cookies for years until the Christmas of 2016 when we finally decided to figure out her recipe. They did not disappoint - they were just as we remembered them - only we cut back to two batches!
