Notes
- Makes about 26 cookies.
- One issue I have come across when making these cookies, if you boil longer than 60 seconds, the cookies can sometimes be dry and will crumble once set. If you boil for less than 60 seconds, the cookies won't set correctly. So it's important you start that times once the mixture comes to a full rolling boil.
- Store in an airtight container
