    I ate several of the brown sugar cookies and they were off the chain. Lee did a very good job on these. You must try her cream cheese log. it's rather spicy, but just the way I like it !!

    made these last night -- first batch turned out a bit flat, as they did spread out while baking. added a little bit more flour to cookie dough to make it stiffer and then coated hands with powdered sugar and rolled them into balls before putting them on the baking sheet. they tasted good either way!

    Brown sugar cookies are the best! So if I am going to cheat on my diet, it would be with these.
