Did anyone have trouble with the cookies not “rising” Mine are pretty flat. I’m sure I put the right amount of baking soda. Oh well they still taste good.

Amy – Thanks for noticing that! I just changed the recipe. It should go in with the rest of the wet ingredients.

I’m making these right now — the dough tastes amazing! I don’t see where the milk comes in dough. Do I add it with the other liquid ingredients?

Ash, I missed this post before but so glad you sent it to me. Now that dear sweet Aunt Abe is gone, her handwriting on the recipe brought back sweet memories. She did indeed bake and some her treats, like grandma’s, simply can’t be replaced. Although I must say she wasn’t much of a cook. Having lived with her for a year while going to SPU, I recall mostly fried drumsticks and pancakes. That was about as far as her culinary skills went. But what she did miss in gourmet cooking she more than made up for with her humor, all-inclusive friendships, her love of just being together, playing games and laughing, laughing, laughing.
