Personal Notes:
I got this recipe from my good friend, Andi's mom. In college, we would go to her parents house in Michigan for the weekend. Her mom would always make these cookies for us when we came "home". She's just like Martha Stewart, so we always joked that I was one of her long-lost daughters!
This recipe makes a lot - they freeze really well with wax paper in between the layers.
