Sally Ann Cookies
If my Grandma Mabel were still alive today, she would be 105 yrs old and she would probably still be baking! She was a wonderful cook, whenever you stopped by her house, even unannounced, she had fresh baked cookies on hand and a cup of coffee. This was always my favorite cookie, I hope you enjoy them too!
