My grandmother, Edith, always makes Persimmon Cookies this time of year. And even though they are messy, we love having our Persimmon tree in our backyard.
With persimmons ripening and weather getting chilly - this is a great Fall recipe to warm any home! My sister Dana and I decided to pick some persimmons and actually make use of the slimy delicious fruit. With a little less sugar and a lot more spice, this recipe yields cake-like cookies with a bite!
