Cereal Cookies

2008 Grapevine,TX · Melinda’s cookbook — Melinda Winslow

I was looking for a cereal cookie but wanted to use wheat flour, so here goes. I chose to use a "Heart Healthy" Cinnamon Raisen Granola cereal This is a nice little crisp cookie with a soft middle. The flavor is very nice. Would go nice with a cup of hot coffee or tea, as well as a glass of fresh lemonade. I hope you enjoy these as much as we do, Cj and Daddy say they are a keeper!
