This was my mom's favorite cookie recipe. In fact, I don't remember her making any other cookies (besides chocolate chip). I think the rocks are the walnuts. I'm totally guessing at the time to make and number of cookies it makes because I bake cookies even less frequently than Mom did. Please feel free to correct
