When my mother was young her mother made these candy cookies for them to
eat. They didn't have a lot of food but what they did have came from their
garden. Also, they used everything up one way or another. So my grandma would
take the icing left over from a cake and put it on saltine crackers making a
sandwich This is how she would use up the leftover icing. These became "Candy
Cookies". Growing up in Southern
Utah and learning the same thing about using what we have, we made them too. I
make them for my children also. We love them, when I made them I remember that
my mom and grandma grow up going with out and having to make due.
