Personal Notes:
This was written on the back of the card
You can use 1 tsp vanilla with either 1 tsp almond or lemon. Some of mine I leave plain without dipping in sugar then some I roll in 2T sugar and 2 tsp cinnamon. They brown quick. We like them better if just starting to brown. Don't flatten too flat!
