This Granny Cookie recipe has been in my husbands family for over a hundred years.  It all started with my kids great great grandma.  Every year right after Thanksgiving the cookies would show up.  Sometimes brought over and sometimes shipped.  But there were always Granny Cookies.  So when the celiac diagnoses came I knew I had to modify great grandma's recipe. And it worked! These are crispy and sweet and my kids don't notice the difference (yay!!) I also use this recipe for cutout gingerbread cookies.  Just add a teaspoon of ginger to the recipe.  So thankful for family traditions and the joy they bring our family.
