    4. NOTES : Joan Says: My mother made this for us when we were kids, and I made them for my children, too. It is a very old recipe. If you like, these cookies can be iced, but we never did which. They didn't last long sufficient. Allspice can be substituted for the spices. I also have made these using mashed bananas for the applesauce.
