Question
Dear Gramps,
My wife has heard of a cookie recipe, a very good recipe that is around but she has not been able to find a copy of it anywhere. It’s called “Scripture Cookies” and you have to look up the ingredients to make the cookies by searching through the scriptures for clues. Have you heard of this recipe before? Do you know of a Relief Society Sister who could help us?
