  1. Little drops of heaven!! I made these again today but I reduced the baking time to 15 min because I prefer a soft, chewy cookie.
     
  2. I got this recipe from a girl I used to work with about 10 years ago & it is a favorite in my house. They are really good!!
     
  3. I don't know where you got this recipe from, but it is a winner in my household. I saw a previous reviewer writing about the sticky dough, and how hard it was to roll. I put the topping in a wide coffee mug, and swirled the little dough bits around individually after dropping them in until they were evenly coated, made it very easy to handle. I will be halving this recipe next time, as I am sending five people home with these taystee cookies today. Thank you Zusie!!
     
  4. I really love these cookies, they were thick and chewy, even after a day. The only thing is that they were very sticky, so it was difficut to roll them in the sugar and cinnamon mixture.
     
  5. I made these cookies today, although the dough was kinda sticky these cookies were very good. Great Recipe!!!!!!!!!!!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

<a href="http://bp-grafix.net/sitebuilder"target=new><img src="http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i185/glittergus/icons/i.gif" border=0></a> I am a proud mother of three healthy boys aged 15,11 and 5. I'm originally from the tiny island of Bermuda and have been living in Edinburgh since July 2005. I've been collecting recipes since I was about 14 or 15 and been cooking and baking since then as well. I love all kinds of crafts also. In my spare time if I'm not in the kitchen; I crochet, make jewelry, bead, knit, sew, cross stitch, do plastic canvas and quilt. I have a short attention span, so I have plenty of different craft choices when I get bored of doing something. Oh, and I also like to read, listen to music, fiddle with any electronic gadget, collect dvd's and watch them, and I'm an internetaholic! :-) I keep a craft blog at http://hobbyzu.blogspot.com and I sell my crocheted items and patterns at http://hobbyzu.com. I keep pretty busy and being self employed gives me more time to explore cooking! :-) I'm mostly interested in cook books featuring regular old home cooking and favorites. When I moved to the UK I had to get rid of my cookbook collection. I did keep all my Bermudian cookbooks, charity cookbooks and 'The Foods of Israel Today' and Better Homes and Gardens 'Hometown Favorites'. <a href="http://bp-grafix.net/sitebuilder"target=new><img src="http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i185/glittergus/icons/g5.gif" border=0></a> I am most passionate when it comes to my family and caring for them. Getting to feed them is an added bonus! Lucky for me, my boys are steadily growing pigs with bottomless pits for stomachs! lol :-) <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/untitled.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/200_artistrichardneuman-art-prints_.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting">
