My mom gave me this recipe, I have not got a chance to try them yet but she says they are really good and she likes them because they are not as overly sweet as some cookies.

    You know I just copied what my mom had wrote down and didn't think about it. Oleo is just what she calls margarine. LOL. Come to think of it, I will have to ask her why she calls it that.

    I changed the recipe to say "margarine" instead of oleo so it isn't confusing for those that have never talked to my mom before. ;-)
