Oh, Those are the delicious Uncle Seth's cookies.
Here is a version I found online. we use a cream cheese frosting on ours. Uncle Seth's - Pink Frosted Cookies
1 cup butter
2 cups granulated white sugar
3 eggs
7 ounces milk
5 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla 
Heat oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly grease baking sheets.
Cream the butter and sugar together.
Add eggs 1 at a time and mix well.
Stir in milk and vanilla
Sift flour, salt and baking powder together and stir it into
the cream mixture until well blended.
Drop HEAPING spoonfuls on baking sheets.
Bake for 10-12 minutes.
Cool on wire racks before frosting. 
Notes:
These cookies are meant to be LARGE, approx 3-4 in diameter.
They cannot be rolled out, the dough is like a thick cake batter and
these cookies will be cake like. They are not very pretty on their own,
which is why the pink frosting is used.
You can make your own icing by using my recepie for butter cream
frosting and coloring it pink if you' d like to.
