This cookie is an updated bar from my Grandmother's recipe collection. It has always been my mother's favorite cookie at the holidays. Since we have all become more health conscious in the last couple of years we started experimenting with the ingredients to make the cookie more wholesome. We think we nailed the recipe. It will always be a tradition on our table over the holiday season in the years to come.
