Personal Notes:
I tasted these cookies at a party years ago and fell in love with them. I could not figure out what the ingredients were that made them so special. It took my friend one year to finally get the recipe for me and was I surprised when I saw the ingredients. I have made them many times since then. I often substitute white chocolate chips for the semi-sweet.
