I made up a batch of these for a friend this afternoon and I had to quickly put them in a sealed bag so I wouldnt eat them all! These are one of Jaxon and Owen's favorite too! Jaxon thought today was an extra special day since we spent the morning out at the lake and made snickerdoodles in the afternoon!
