A Really Good Cookie - #2

those

Lemon Fridge Cookies

were

good

but not

Really and Truly

"Aunt Martha"

worthy

…..

John

mentioned

Pecan Sandies

(obviously with Keebler's or Pepperidge Farm cookies in mind)

so 

I 

perused

through

a few of my

FAVE

baking blogs

and

found

a 

Pecan Sandie recipe

on

Brown Eyed Baker

I 

doubled

her recipe

and rolled the dough into balls

flattened

them

with a 

glass

and

baked them 
                took a nibble


                            and decided
                                               that
                                                      to be 

really 

R.E.A.L.L.Y

would

need a 

DARK CHOCOLATE DRIZZLE

Keep Calm

Bake on
