Life is so easy nowadays. Sit in front of your computer, connect to the internet, google and voila, in seconds you get a thousand options to choose from. You just need to know key words that will give you the best sites without too much fuss. But this recipe didn't come from the net but from an old wrapper of chocolates sent from a relative abroad. So make a habit to check the back of anything from the grocery, most of the time, these recipes are tested and tried and fool proof. Just as long as you follow the instruction properly, I guess you'll feed your family well.

My tips:
If the recipe says drop by spoonfuls or by scoopfuls, dont press the dough or flatten it. Just leave it like a ball, it will flatten into round cookies when inside the oven. I did flatten them before and they became gigantic cookies.
To make them into cupcakes, just add 1/2 a teaspoon of baking powder to every cup of flour.
dont do what I did... they have spread and are now connected but still yummy!
