Oops, i guess this thing does not accept 'dashes'. cooking time should be 10 to 12 minutes and it makes about 15 to 20 cookies.

We ate these up! While I was working with the icing, my 2-year-old slipped up behind me and ate EIGHT cookies before I saw him! I made another batch the next day, and my husband ate 10. They both liked the cookies better without the icing. They're really easy that way, so I'll be making a lot of these!

Thank you! thank you! thank you! I can't begin to tell you how excited I am to find this recipe. These are my husbands favorites and he only gets them when we get back up to New York, which just isn't often enough. I can't wait to make these. He will be so surprised.

I made these without the icing and added caramel/chocolate chips with 1-2 Tablespoons more sugar. They were fantastic, especially right out of the oven!
