. . . Cookie Time Tuesday-Rhubarb Cookies . . .

Sometimes Cookie Time Tuesday is a disappointment but NOT this week.  This cookies is a serious KEEPER!  We all loved this one!  It is the perfect amount of sweet and tart.  I am so pleased that I happened upon this recipe over at Heat Oven to 350.

I know rhubarb is a bit unusual of an ingredient in a cookie but I grew up on rhubarb and love it!  My grandma has a great garden in Ohio and every year I count the days until it is time for the rhubarb to be cut.  If you don't have access to a garden of rhubarb you can buy it in the produce section of your grocery store.
