These were nice easy cookies. I too rolled them twice and they tasted great. The only little thing was that they flattened and were very hard to roll. Not quite sure why they flattened but I guess maybe if I had chilled them they would have stayed rounder. Anyways I nice cookie although I think I prefer the ones with pecans but nothing wrong with change ;) Made for the Dining Daredevils, ZWT5 2009

I made another 6 dozen cookies using this recipe. It was easy to prepare. I did have to turn the heat down on the oven though. It was too hot(perhaps because we are high altitude)the first batch became a little too brown, but that was ok, that batch stayed home and make son and husband happy. I rolled them twice in the powered sugar, first hot, then again after cool.Great recipe also.
