Drop by teaspoons onto ungreased cookie sheets. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes in a 375 degree oven or until the cookies spring back when lightly pressed in the centers.. Cool the cookies on cooling racks completely.

Spread a thin layer of creamy vanilla frosting on top. For holidays, tint the frosting with food coloring or sprinkle with tinted coconut, or place 1/2 a maraschino cherry on top.
