These are good cookies - no wonder your husband and son love them so much! I made smaller cookies, and got two dozen perfect sized cookies from the recipe. These cookies do spread out, so make sure you leave lots of room! I'll make this one again - thanks for posting! Made for PAC Fall 2009 - You were adopted!
