Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
Cinnamon Jumbles may have been the original recipe for Grandma's cookies and she just tweaked it a bit. She didn't have a recipe written down but when Barbara was visiting with her, she watched her make them and wrote directions down. Cinnamon Jumbles dates back to the 1890's when they were one of the favorite cookies in the United States. Cake like in texture.
