Hahaha! This is without a doubt one of the least informative recipes I have seen for a while. Ummm. the author (my mother-in-law) assumes the person wanting to make these knows what they are. I pulled it out of an old church cook book. She is a wonderful cook. I doubt that she even looks at recipes for much. Anyway...mix them up...roll them into little balls about the size of hazelnut. Bake. I would keep your eye on them. Don't over bake or they will be so hard you will break your teeth. They are a hard cookie but I think I read that you were just at the dentist!
A Pet A Day:
Todays feature pet is my grandcat Shyla. She lived at my house for about three years. Now she lives with her real owner.(my daughter) She was a rescue cat. We think that she was a from a feral cat's litter. She was very timid as a kitten and still spooks easily. Once she decides that you are O.K. as a human she will not leave you alone.

That looks like a very stressed out cat.
she was stressed out. i laugh everytime i see that picture. those cookies sound gross.
actually now that i think of it, shyla is stressed out about 24 hours a day. she runs around like a spaz freaked out of everyone. once she was hiding in my cupboards for about 4 days. i would hear her at night but she would run and hide if she heard me.
She came a long way socially.
THAT'S BECAUSE OF MY UNFAILING LOVE.
