I'm glad that the recipe is a fond one for everyone. My mom always made them. I've seen them called Boiled Chocolate cookies too. Due to how they look, my brother called them "Dog t**d cookies" and it stuck.

I've been craving them for a week. I've got all the ingredients. However, I'm not going to make them until this cold goes away and I can taste again.

Here's another easy recipe, this time for fudge. It was one my Grandma always made and that she passed on to me. Yes, the recipe below is for real and is actually very good.

Pinto Bean Fudge
1 cup cooked, unseasoned pinto bean puree
3 tsp vanilla
5 oz baking chocolate (You can use the cocoa powder/butter equivalent)
5 lbs (or more) powdered sugar

Melt the baking chocolate. Mix with bean puree until very smooth. Mix with powdered sugar until it begins to feel stiff. Drop onto wax paper. If the fudge hasn't set after a few hours on the wax paper, you can scrape it back into a bowl and add more sugar. Add nuts if you want them. You can also add chile powder for some zip.
