I love them, and as bad as it sounds, I sometimes make them after the kids have gone to bed and let them eat them for breakfast the next morning.

Lol, it's simple and cheap. We did put whipped cream in our frosting last year, and I have to tell you....it just made the cookies more addicting. They didn't get hard, and were still fluffy when we got to my dads house.
