Hickory Nut Cookies
A couple months ago my neighbor, Pat, brought over a plate of homemade hickory nut cookies. Sometimes plain old nut cookies are a little bland, not bad, but just not that great. Well, these cookies were awesome, with the perfect texture of crispy/moist. They were a big hit and disappeared quickly. Pat just wrote an article for the Glen Arbor Sun, How I became a hickory nut, about her quest to find hickory nuts to make cookies for a friend. And lucky for us, she includes a copy of the cookie recipe (although she made it without the frosting, and we didn't think anything was missing). She ended up ordering the nuts online, but in a pinch, you could try walnuts. Yum!
