Brown Sugar Cookies


Another cookie recipe to check off my list of those I must try!

And this one is another keeper. We loved the buttery caramel taste. The cookie itself just meted in your mouth, and the frosting put it over the top with its rich brown sugar taste.

They were fun to make and fun to eat!
