Notes: The notes on the recipe I got from Aunt Cese says to try 2 cups of crumbs and 2 cups of raisins. Above is the original recipe. The story is that Grandma Zimmer used to bring these cookies to Paola from the Miller and Paine store in Lincoln, Nebraska. Along with the cookies she also brought a box of gum drops!
