Notes: I have had this recipe since 1958 when I was attending Columbus Business University and staying in a dorm with kitchen privileges. I had two roommates and we all used to take turns going home for the weekend and bringing back our mom's homemade goodies to share. This is one of them; made by Mrs. Ritter from Wapakoneta, Ohio for my roommate Tex (I really don't remember her real name, we nicknamed her Tex only because her last name was Ritter, and if you're under the age of 70 you won't even know who Tex Ritter was!)
