A regular request of the grandkids when they’re at our parent’s house (and as you’d suspect, they usually get what they want at Grandma and Pappaw’s house), these cookies are the perfect chewy goodness with a cup of coffee or ice cold glass of milk. I’ve been craving these cookies lately…I’m ready for those comfort foods that are perfect on a cool, crisp fall day. You can keep your pumpkin spice latte. I’m eating cookies! ~Tracy
