OWL EYES COOKIES
These cookies are a real hoot, and they taste as good as they look. Each fall, it was a tradition for my Grandma to bake batches of Owl Cookies. The sweets were so tasty that we'd beg her to make them before the leaves had even begun turning. -Liz Clemons, Sumter, South Carolina

[email protected]I was really excited to try these cookies but I was disappointed with the results. The dough was too sticky and difficult to work with, and the cookies didn't spread out in the oven. They ended up being more like little balls of dough.
