Directions
Sift flour, soda, salt and cinnamon together.
Cream butter and sugar until fluffy light in medium size bowl, beat in eggs and brandy.
Stir in flour mixture, half at a time, blending well to make a soft dough. Stir in the remainer of the ingredients, mixing to coat everything.
Drop batter, a rounded teaspoon full at a time, 1 inch apart onto a lightly greased cookie sheet 5. Bake at 350℉ (180℃) for 12 minutes or until firm and lightly browned.
When cool, store in an air tight container. These cookie dry out quickly and get hard otherwise.
