MAMIE EISENHOWER’S CHOCOLATE MARBLE COOKIES

Mamie Eisenhower cookies [1]

Look what arrived in the mail, just in time for Presidents’ Day: a batch of Mamie Eisenhower’s Marble Cookies.  Baked with love and sent with care by my very own First Lady, my mom. Sweet, nutty and a little flaky (I refer to the cookies) Mamie’s marble cookies presage the wining streak of chocolate cookie victories of her successors, notably Hillary Clinton [2]Laura Bush [3], and Michelle Obama [4].

Interesting to note that the only time the First Lady cookie bake-off did not predict the election winner was when Ann Romney’s M&M cookie [5] vanquished Michelle’s shortbread entry. There’s a lesson here.

Still, they’re all very good recipes. Here’s how Mamie did it.
