I got this reciepe from one of those Pillsbury booklets you get at the grocery store. I love these cookies and so does everyone else.
You can get alot of these cookies on a cookie sheet since they do not spread very much when baking. You ususally put 12 on a sheet but you can get twice as many and more on a real cookies sheet.
