I stumbled on these cookies along time ago, when I was looking to fill Christmas baskets. They are truly wonderful and sinfully rich.
Ingredients:
2 cups sugar
1/2 lb butter (no substitutions)
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 eggs
4 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 (16 ounce) container ricotta cheese
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°.
2. Cream together sugar and butter.
3. Add vanilla.
4. Beat eggs in one at a time.
5. Sift flour, salt and baking soda.
6. Add to creamed mixture.
7. Mix well.
8. Add the ricotta cheese.
9. **Usually here I add butterscotch chips or chips of your liking (raspberry chips are my favorite).
10. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto a non-stick cookie sheet.
11. Bake for 15 minutes or until lightly browned.
12. Frost if desired.
