I cannot wait to try this....my grandmother (born in 1883) used to make a bar cookie she called "French cookies". I had the recipe, but lost it and unable to find it again...however, this may be just what she made for it looks and sounds so similar...the coffee, raisins & walnuts - even the icing! Thanks much!

Wow, these sound sooo good, Annie!!! My mom used to make something like this with raisins and pecans. You can't go wrong with this one. I like your idea of making them in small tins for gifts. We have an Octoberfast bakesale coming up. I'm going to make these. Bet they'll sell out first! Thanks for another terrific recipe! I can't wait to make your recipe!
