Comments:
Sandee McCarron from Rocledge, FL says: Great tasting cookie that ends up being as big as a small pie! I doubled the recipe BUT found two problems: (1) Even after refrigerating, dough was very sticky. Had to keep working more flour into it to be able to roll it out and (2) I had 1/2 bowl of filling left after doubling recipe so I had to do ANOTHER double dough recipe to use it up. I would suggest making a single filling recipe with a double cookie recipe. I didn’t make the frosting as they were great without it!
