My father is 93 years old - born and raised in Baltimore, as was I. We had never heard of these cookies, until we read the article in Saveur. My father worked for the Baltimore Sun and the News American and was all over the city. I attended Baltimore's International Culinary College, for Baking and Pastry - the cookie was never mentioned over one year's time. My girlfriend of over 50 years - also from Baltimore - never heard of these cookies either. They look sloppy!
