It Is Snowing... I Need Cookies

  I am not sure why every time it snows I feel the need to bake something. Maybe it's because on cold , snowy days as a kid,  when there was so much snow school was called off , my mother would break out all her baking gear and , well, bake. So, here is a recipe much loved in our household that is sure to please bakers, and eaters alike.  ~Nadia
