Slowly add dry ingredients to wet. Form into 1 1/2" balls and roll in raw sugar. Bake 10 minutes in 375deg oven.
Perfect with milk, coffee, tea or Great Lakes Brewery Christmas Ale.
Special thanks go out to Kristin Flickenger for the recipe, Emily Baran for the cooling rack, and Brandie Boerger for the ice cream scoop that makes perfectly round cookies every time, for the anal-retentive dentist in all of us.
