Gumdrop Cookies Recipe

My Mom used to make Gumdrop cookies a long time ago, and lost the recipe. A few years ago we went looking online, and we found it, or at least, a recipe close enough to it. This is the second time that I have made these, and each time, the dough turns out a little bit different. This time, it was more flat? I have no idea why, but they were good. I think that I might add more flour to them when I make more next week!

We found this recipe HERE.
