I got this recipe from a girl I met in my BYU ward while I was in college. We had a conversation about cooking and from that arranged a date to meet at her apartment and exchange our favorite recipes. That was the only time I ever spent with her, and I don't even remember her name. I hope I shared something with her that she has used through the years like I have used this recipe.

Oh, you naughty tempter. I'm trying to be OFF sugar. I'm saving your recipe for less responsible days.
If your friend didn't have the good sense to get your good recipes the rest of us did!
I've also used this recipe, that I credit to you, for years! I have passed to many friends who now call them "Misty's cookies". They are a family favorite!
