With the holidays fast approaching what would be better to give someone on your list some homemade treats that aren't expensive, and take so little time ?
NO BAKE COOKIES !!!! This recipe is an old recipe my mom was given when I was 9 yrs old. I befriended this woman's daughter who was also 9 yrs old, who's name was Carolyn Grimley. Evey time Carolyn's parents came to the lake to camp, Carolyn's mom had a batch of those cookies for me ! Below is the recipe. HOPE YOU ENJOY IT !!
