These sound very much like cookies made by a friend's mother many years ago when I was a child.  I loved them and now I'm going to try to make them.  Over the years, I've never found a recipe that actually sounded like those childhood cookies  - -  this might be the one!

**  Taste of Home Magazine has sooooooooo many delicious recipes online as well as in their printed cookbooks.  Sometimes they even put a recipe or three in their magazine!  Subscribe to their online recipes for many, many ideas of all kinds.  You won't be sorry.  One caveat:  they use a lot of canola oil (must be one of their sponsors) but I don't ever touch that crap, so I always always always substitute real, organic butter anytime an "oil or shortening" is called for.  You do whatever you want, though.
