Food Friday: Cookie Recipes from the Mothers of World War II
Today is the 71st anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor so it seemed fitting to provide recipes from a cookbook published by the Mothers of World War II (1954).
The address found on the cover is that of their nationwide headquarters in 1954.
As with any recipe from an older cookbook make sure you read it carefully. In some cases these recipes don't include all the ingredients or the directions for baking such as the first recipe for Ice Box Cookies on this page.
Was one of the women in your family a member of the Mothers of World War II? A list of women in Unit 107 from Markle, Indiana can be found here. Their annual convention program for 1965 and 1968 is also online via the Wabash Valley Visions and Voices Digital Project.
