Amber gave me an unspoken challenge the other day. She shared with me a cookie from a local bakery that was the most wonderful cookie ever. Instead of just sharing and enjoying together she threw the gauntlet and said something to the effect that she wished she had a recipe like that. Obsessing, I began my journey to find the cookie recipe. And I think this is it!!!
The original recipe for these cookies can be found here. I was lucky enough to stumble upon it one day and must share it.Sour Cream Oatmeal Cookies (as good as Amish)
