Wonderful Cookies!

Many years ago I received this cookie recipe from a dear friend, Gale. We have made them hundreds of times and just love them. They are quite nutritious, too, as they have no refined sugar and use lots of good ingredients. I hope you love them as much as we have! Maybe I need to make some more, so that I can post a picture of them. I have also adapted the recipe, making bar cookies out of them, which works equally as well.
