Over the weekend we had a potluck at our friend’s house, and as you might imagine the food was AWESOME. I especially liked these cookies by my BFF Christina. Her daughter has egg allergies, so these are an especially welcome treat for her.
We’re not sure where they originated, as they have been passed around quite a bit.

Hi there, Pecan Sandies are my favorite cookie, but I use chopped walnuts instead of pecans. They are yummy.
