“My mother made these all year round, she would just change the color of sugar in which they were dipped. Consider putting a small amount of powdered drink mix (e.g.. Kool-Aid crystals) in white sugar to get different colors, and a little flavor. (Don't omit the sugar or the flavor will be too strong. )” - by MJK

Ingredients

1 cup butter
1 cup white sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

"These cookies were just ok for me. I will say that it was very easy to make and the ingredients are pretty much always on hand, however I like a "cookie" taste and not a "cake-y" taste. If you like mo..." See morere of the cake texture then these are for you."
