Here's a great recipe for a preholiday cookie that you're just sure to love. They're chocolately, sweet and have a surprise ingredient - Teddy Grahams! The recipe comes from cookie expert Cheryl Schrier. I've ran a few of her cookie recipes previously and I have sampled these on several occasions (they're my favorite). Cheryl bakes cookies every week for the residents and staff of my company.
Happy eating!
