"I recently went to an estate sale and picked up several old and worn handwritten cookbooks. While a lot of the recipes are classics I will post some of the more unusual ones here. Some of the ingredient amounts are not specific, but I will do my best to make educated guesses where needed. For this recipe I'm guessing at the amount of cookies to be about 4 dozen, as well as the size of the cake mix."
