PERSIMMON CAKE (OR COOKIES)
This is my mother's recipe. It was one of my favorites that she would make. It reminds me of the holidays, so with them coming, I thought I would share it. I hope you enjoy it as much as I always did! Note: I'm pretty sure she used this same batter recipe for cookies, as it's the only persimmon recipe I found in her...
