Your welcome. I have alot of recipes that I can share with you gals.
I used to do alot of catering, but not too much now. I need a bigger kitchen, my kitchen is so small, but in a couple of years we are going to put a new "old kitchen " onto the farmhouse. It's easier to go bigger than smaLLER. My other kitchen was huge ! I have a tractor trailer on out farm with all my extra antiques,windows for my addition etc. Can't wait!!! I'm not getting any younger.

Have you ever made these with butter Alanna? I don't have butter flavored crisco, but I do have butter and everything else so I was just wondering.

If tomatoes are a fruit, then isn’t ketchup technically a
smoothie?

Check out the last line, BG. Evidently she has tried it! Am guessing that they would taste fine but perhaps not make as nice a presentation?

I wonder, if you chilled the dough, if they wouldn't stay puffy longer, rather than spreading out immediately? Like with my thumbprint cookies–made with butter, butter, and more butter, lol–if the dough gets too warm, it starts spreading. But keep it chilled, and it stays high and round….
Hmmmm. I think I will make these tomorrow and find out. I have–and enjoy maple flavoring (used it tonight in the homemade whipped cream on the pumpkin pie), and have loads of walnuts (cheaper to buy than the pecans this year).
Yum. Cookies. I like cookies…
LOL
Thanks for the recipe, Alanna, it sounds absolutely delicious…
