Recipe: Lemon Basil Cookies
These sound weird but you will be
surprised at how wonderful these
cookies are. I made them and took
them to Alabama with me to a mini
family reunion type thing and
everyone turned their noses up at
them. Finally Jerry's brother ate
one and RAVED about it. Everyone
else started eating them and they
were all gone in a few minutes and
I took over 5 dozen of them. In
fact we made more while I was
there too. I carry my laptop with
me so we had the recipe there and
we printed out zillions of copies
for it. I then made these for my
neighbors graduation party (she
calls me Neighborhood Nanna:) )
and everyone loved them and I had
to give out recipes for it there
too. So try them. They are
wonderful!!!! Bet you can't eat
just ONE!!!!!!
