Notes:
*** Melinda Winslow - Nanny and I made these cookies when I was very young and when I was about 12 years old I ask her for the recipe. She made them from memory, so one day she stopped and measure each ingredient as she made the cookies so I could have the recipe that was in her mind. We had these right out of the oven with a fresh cup of coffee(a little coffee with my milk). I have enjoyed these cookies for so many years.... and hope you will too...
