I had to try this recipe because it was submitted by someone who had the recipe since 1940 when she was a teenager and just learning to cook. This makes a terrific cookie. I added butterscotch chips for fun. Serving size is estimated. Recipe courtesy of Maurine Hutchings, Boise Idaho and the Idaho Press Tribune. Ingredients:
