Quick and Easy Split Second Cookies

    Cuisine:

    My mom's friend, Maryann Fellows (nee Olsson), won a new kitchen from Pillsbury for developing this recipe and entering it into their contest in 1954. It says Robert as the entrant, but I'm sure back then she entered as Mrs. Robert Fellows. She was a native of Sweden who came to America in the late 1940s. Her original recipe calls for raspberry jam, but any jelly or preserve will be delicious I'm sure. We just always make it the way Mrs. Fellows did. I bet if she had access to lingonberry jam at the time, she might have considered using that as it is such a traditional Swedish flavor. These are so fast to make and fly off of the plate every time I cook them. Thank you Mrs. Fellows! We will always remember you for your delicious cookies.
