Recipe Introduction
My inlaws lived in Salina KS in the early 60's and at that time there was an Air Force Base located there. This was given to her by one of the wives whose husband was stationed there. She always said her best recipes came from the Air Force wives as they were from all areas of the country. I have put revisions in as this still called for sifting the flour, chopping chips before mini chips were available, and microwave instead of double boiler for the filling.
