SENN HIGH SCHOOL CHICAGO BUTTER COOKIES
This is the actual recipe used in the Chicago public schools, my Mom was the manager in the cafeteria for many years. This recipe was also published in a Chicago newspaper as one of the favorites. The cookie has a wonderful butter flavor and very delicate texture. Have one with a little carton of milk and you will feel young again. Enjoy!

[email protected]These cookies are a great way to use up leftover egg whites. I always have a few egg whites left over after making other recipes, and these cookies are a great way to use them up.
