Personal Notes:
I used to love helping grandma make these cookies with her "cookie gun" She would frost these with store-bought frosting. She would always tell me she liked them with just a tiny bit of frosting (I put too much on) which she would apply with a toothpick. These melt in your mouth-but not off your thighs. Like most of grandma's cookies these keep for a long time in gallon ice cream containers.
