NOTES : These are similar to Pecan Sandies, but they're crisper and
not crumbly. I like these better. :-)

When Mom made cookies, she always made about three thousand batches at
once. Instead of just refrigerating and baking the cookie dough, she
often froze several rolls for future use. They usually didn't last
long enough to be baked. That dough is really good frozen!!
