Laura Bush's Cowboy Cookies

This Laura Bush's Texas Governor's Mansion Cowboy Cookies recipe handed Mrs. Bush a landslide victory over Mrs. Gore's gingersnaps in 2000. And I must say, it gets my vote every single time I make them. In the spirit of Americana and good food, happy 4th of July, y'all!

Yield: enough cookies to feed most of the Lone Star State
