Notes: This recipe came from Dot Thiel ( Rock's Mom ) and is Rocky's absolutely favorite cookie/pastry. They are a little time consuming to make but well worth the effort. It was a First place winner in the 8th Pillsbury Grand National contest sometime in the 1960's. Rocky could smell the vanilla sugar the minute he opened our backdoor and would know I had made these cookies!
