I found these when I was 13 years old in an old cookbook. I was home alone after school and made all kinds of interesting things! One day I came across these chocolate cookies and made them. They were hard as a rock and my dad called them “bullets”. That name stuck for years and I learned not to cook them as long. They became a soft and delicious favorite!
