Mine was Honey Balls

1 cup Crisco, 1/4 to 1/2 cup honey, 1/4 tsp. Salt, 2 cups flour, 2 cups chopped pecans, 1 tsp almond flavor or 2 tsp. Vanilla.

Mix crisco and honey until light and fluffy, add salt, flour, extract and pecans. Refrigerate until easy to handle. Start heating oven to 350 degrees. Shape dough into 1” balls. Bake on undressed cookie sheets. 12 -15 minutes. While still warm roll in powdered sugar.

Still a favorite!

Snickerdoodles , in School.

I remember making the no bake cookies while in high school with oatmeal, walnuts, sugar, cocoa and butter. Boy that sounds so fattening now that I am much older.

Original Tollhouse chocolate chip cookies! Still favorites for us, our kids and grandkids!

Kolachky's and Sugar Cookies

Molasses Crinkles - I won a purple ribbon at the fair in my 1st year of 4H!

Tollhouse Choc. Chip cookies. Mom would have me: double the dough and halve the chips. Literally a Chocolate "Chip" cookie.

Our first cookie bakes used Pilsbury Slice and Bake Chocolate Chips. My mom worked a lot.

The first cookies I made were peanut butter cookies. I started learning to cook at a very young age. For a long time it was peanut butter cookies of pumpkin pies for desert. I even made my own crust for the pies. We always seem to have dozens of peanut butter cookies in the kitchen and it smelled so good.
