Calling all Root Beer lovers; these are for you.
I made these for a pot luck and they were so good my husband only wanted me to take a few to share. These cookies are SO yummy and truly taste like a root beer float. It was a bit confusing having cookies that taste like pop at first but they are so yummy I just didn't worry about it. Another one please...
