Recipe Talk

I cannot locate my McCall;s Great American Spice Cookies Recipe Card 23g. If anyone has the recipe and would be willing to share it with me I would be very appreciative. Looked for the card this morning and no luck. Now the holidays are here and I'd like to make these cookies (so good with a hot cup of tea). Thank you very much.
