These are the exact same cookies we had in my elementary school cafeteria back in the 60's. It's hard to believe I FINALLY found the recipe after all these years. My sister and brother (1 and 2 yrs younger than I) have often fondly mentioned these cookies over years. It was hard to search for them because we weren't sure if these ball-shaped things were cookies or a candy (LOL!). And they're surprisingly easy to make. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
