Recipe: Andes Mint Cookies
Summary: December 8 - A Cookie A Day Until Christmas! Recipe from the lovely Melissa Cass. She’s one of those women that can do everything, including hula dance. She’s awesome! She says, “We love, love, love these cookies. I always plan to give some away but we would sit down and eat all of them. Everyone else seems to enjoy them. The YW start drooling before an activity even starts if they know I am bringing these. Hope you enjoy them as well.”
