Hahaha it's cheating, but the BEST sugar cookie I ever had... my aunt made them and I LOVED THEM and asked her the recipe... and it was betty crocker cookie mix with lemon and orange zest grated in it.

AHAHA! When I was in RI I made some for my coworkers, most of them were culinary students at johnson and wales... and they were like "these are amazing what's your recipe?!!" and I was so ashamed. I told them it was a secret family recipe.

They're good though!

GARLIC CHEESE GRITS SOUND AWESOME. You must share "your" recipe!
