Mrs Dickie's Meltaways Cookies

---

Mrs. Dickie was the neighborhood grandmother when my sons were growing up. She didn't have any children of her own, so she made certain that she got to know every child in the neighborhood. She was always baking cookies for them and us. She was a wonderful person and we miss her. She was also kind enough to give me her prized recipe for meltaways. The yield is variable. I used teaspoons to drop.
