Some cookies still make lunch lovin’ memories
‘
About the Recipe: The cookies were very delicate, so I added a little more flour to the remaining dough. The rich butter flavor and crisp texture will be remembered with a smile. Some cookies live on forever in our memories.

Heart Warming Story about the Recipe:
This popular cookie is best loved and popular. It was reported that it came from the files of the Chicago Board of Education was used in public school lunchrooms. What made them the cookie to remember is their buttery flavor. The cookies, freshly baked, were served in many Chicago public school cafeterias in the 60’s and 70’s. Lillian Stryzek said that they had a wonderful flavor and very delicate texture.
Cook’s Note: This wasn’t part of the original recipe, but If you bake them longer, you will get a brown ridge around each cookie. For a red and white blended cookie, stir in a little red sugar and then form into balls. For a holiday touch, sprinkle them lightly with red granulated decorating sugar.
I also halved the original recipe and made them a little smaller.
Bake Cookies: Place cookies in preheated 350-degree F oven for 12 to 15 minutes, depending on the cookie sheets used and thickness of the cookies. They should be faintly browned around the edges.
Yield: about 2 dozen
