Ditto what Michelle said - I can almost taste these yummy cookies! Thanks for sharing the recipe!
Oh, dear....another yummy cookie recipe to add to my collection. Will I ever lose any weight?! Not with great recipes like this!
Oh yum! These are now on my list to bake before next Thursday! I ran across something similar but with mashed sweet potatoes and dried cranberries--just to be a bit contrary :O)
Thanks for sharing--happy Thursday!
