Washboard Cookies image

These cookies were the treat we would enjoy when we traveled on family shopping trips to Ft. Worth many years ago. My sister, Carrie, always made them and put them in a foil-covered shoe box. By the time we got to Ft. Worth, they were all gone! Now my daughter makes these cookies for me, and at the age of 90, I still think they are the greatest treat.

Overall, I thought these cookies were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't anything special either.

These cookies didn't turn out as I expected. They were a bit too dry.

I found the dough to be a bit too sticky. I had to add some extra flour to get it to the right consistency.
