Do not ask me why these cookies are called 'Bachelor Buttons' because I don't have the answer. Who knows...perhaps these helped a young lady win the heart of a bachelor! I haven't made them yet, but like the list of ingredients. My friend makes these every year for her Christmas cookie tray. Perhaps I will too!
