Breakfast Take Along Cookie!

Breakfast Cookie!

I found this recipe in my Hobe Sound Cook Book that was a gift to me and have kept thinking... "I ought to try that"... so this past week was the time, I decided!  Since I was short on ingredients AND  I wasn't too sure how my clan would take them them, I only made a 1/2 batch which yielded about 12  -3"cookies!  Coupled with fresh fruit it was a complete breakfast even if we weren't on the run that a.m.  Hope your families enjoy as much as we did!  Made some happy kids in this School Haus, that's for sure!

 Enjoy~ Laura
