I used to make these in the late 70's or early 80"s. Haven't made them in years and recently thought about them but when I finally found the recipe it was so faded I could barely read it. So glad to have it again. They"re delicious. Thanks.

These are the best! I make homemade ice cream sandwiches with these cookies. So good

I used 3/4 cup brown sugar and 3/4 cup white sugar. I added an additional 1/4 cup flour to prevent them from flattening out. Chewy chocolate delishousness!

I really messed up and only used one stick of butter + the four tablespoons. I couldn't imagine why the dough was so stiff at the end! It wasn't until I was completely done baking cookies that I realized I had left out half of the butter. How were the cookies you ask? They were delicious!! They were like miniature brownies, not dry or hard. Just deep chocolate goodness! They were a bit small and didn't spread, probably due to not using all of the butter. If these were that good with a major error, I can only imagine how good they will be with full power butter! Aunt Dawn, thanks for a great recipe!! It's a keeper!!!

Delicious! I followed the recipe to the T. I only wish I would have had some chocolate chips to throw in.
