SPRING PAC 2009: I've been making these since I was a kid but this recipe was a little different in that it didn't use as much sugar as the recipe I've had for years. I did like it much better than my old recipe and will be using this one from now on. My kids ate the whole batch in one day. I rolled 1/2 of the cookies in coconut and the other half in crushed pecans.
