Cookie Club Recipe #1

I am so excited about posting tonight. I just announced my giveaway winner and now I an adding my first recipe for the Cookie Club. How fun for me!

So here is our first cookie recipe of many. It is a bar cookie called Jerome Cookies. I have no idea why they are called this unless someone named Jerome created them or just loved them like I do. This is something my Grandmother has made for as long as I can remember during the holidays and I can never eat just one. Yummmmmm-o! Let me know if you post about them and I will visit your blog and add a link to my sidebar. I will be making them this week and of course adding a picture. :)

1 egg

1/2 c. milk

1 can coconut

1 cup graham cracker crumbs

1 pkg whole graham crackers

Topping

2 c. powdered sugar

1 stick butter (softened)

3 Tbs. milk

1 tsp pure vanilla extract

Topping Directions: Combine all ingredients for topping and blend together using an electric mixer until smooth.
