ORANGE DROP COOKIES I
This recipe is from my great grandmother. I entered these in our County Fair. There were over 60 entries in the drop cookie category. I received 2nd place. Pretty darn good, huh? My great grandmother would have been so proud. You can make sour milk by combining 1/2 cup of milk with 1 teaspoon vinegar and allow to set 10 minutes.

[email protected]These cookies were a disaster! They didn't spread out at all, and they were hard as rocks. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.
