Poor Mans Macadamia Nut Cookies Recipes

POOR MAN'S COOKIES

Poor Man's Cookies image

In the 1930s, producers of a popular radio program called Jake and Lena invited listeners to write in for this recipe. My mother changed the name from Jake and Lena Cookies to Poor Man's Cookies because they contained no eggs, milk or nuts. Despite the name, the cookies are rich in taste!
