Yum! These are truly delish, and my son was ecstatic to make "chocolate milk cookies" LOL. The texture of these is super, and the ovaltine just adds a little extra something to the already terrific buttery flavor of the cookie. I halved the recipe and got 21 good-sized cookies. I also pressed my dough balls down a bit halfway through baking as they didn't seem to be spreading at all. Thanks so much for posting, Jean; this is absolutely a keeper! Made for ZWT 7, for the Vivacious Violets.
