Whenever I've taken these to church coffees, I've had women come into the kitchen and request the recipe. You'll enjoy this sugar cookie's secret ingredient—brown sugar! —Annabel Cox, Olivet, South Dakota

Delicious! My husband is very picky when it comes to cookies and he loved them. I did make one simple change. Instead of dipping the ball in water and then in sugar, I just rolled the whole ball in the sugar(no water). I thought it looked better that way.

Going to make later. Just wanted to tell sjor/confused. There are two sizes of marbles. The average small one and then one that's at least 2 times larger.

I'm confused. It says make into large marble size balls. If I remember correctly marbles are not very large. Is that the correct size ball to make.

Don't know about the cooking time, but it's 48 cookies, or 24 servings, because the serving size is 2 cookies.
