When I eat these cookies it is like I am a child again, sitting in my
Grandma's house waiting for Santa to arrive. They are light and fluffy
and in my opinion, don't need the icing to be good. Heck, I don't even
think they really need to be baked!
This recipe makes a TON of cookies! Depending on the size of
your cookie cutters, usually around 100. Just enough to share with all
your friends and neighbors (and make your back hurt from all the leaning
over).
