Mom always made these cookies for her kids and grandkids. In later years (and before COVID) I used to make this recipe for the kid's school potlucks. To make it more fun I baked it in a pizza pan to make one large cookie and usually wrote a message on it with icing. The kids would just break off a chunk of the cookie or you could cut it with a pizza cutter.
