My momma used to make these. Fred's mother did too. They're one of the easiest cookies to make and the recipe calls for ingredients I always have on hand. Since Fred really likes these, I made a batch this afternoon.

My boys favorite cookie!! My oldest Son calls these travel cookies because I always made these when we went on trips.
ReplyDeleteBut we always called them No Bake or One minute cookies. I don't think we ever used corn syrup in ours though.
