I just started making these this year. I needed to take some cookies to a gathering and wanted to try out a new recipe. I really didn't expect much, but these turned out fantastic. They're good right away and after a day or two develop a little crunchy coating from the sugar crystals.

Add 2 eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition
Add 1 t vanillaSift: 3 c flour, 1.5 t baking powder, 1 t salt
