COOKIE LADY MOLASSES COOKIES

THERE WAS A LADY IN MY OLD NEIGHBORHOOD THAT WAS NAMED THE "COOKIE LADY" HER NAME WAS DEANNE HALEY. EVERY TUESDAY WHEN THE KIDS GOT OFF THE SCHOOL BUS THEY WOULD GO TO HER HOUSE AND SHE WOULD HAVE COOKIES FOR THEM. DEANNE PASSED AWAY AFTER A LONG BATTLE WITH CANCER, BUT HER RECIPES LIVE ON. THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITES.
