Aunt Sue’s Cranilla Cookies
These Very Vanilla Cranilla Cookies are so good that I always make at least a triple batch. I can easily eat an entire batch as soon they come out of the oven! This is a delicious recipe that makes up nicely whether you are using all-purpose wheat flour, or any other kind of gluten-free flour. They are also delicious with alternate sugars. Just make sure you don't skimp on the vanilla!
