Hello Jan,
Cornstarch and cornmeal are so different that I do not think substituting one for the other would work.
I found one recipe with that name and those ingredients. See
below.

Cornmeal Pie
Ingredients :
Dough for 9 inch pastry shell
1 c. brown sugar minus 2 tbsp.
1 c. granulated sugar minus 2 tbsp.
2 tbsp. all-purpose flour
1 tbsp. yellow cornmeal
1/4 tsp. salt
2 eggs
1/4 c. (1/2 stick) butter, melted
1/2 c. evaporated milk
1 tsp. vanilla extract
3/4 c. chopped hickory or other nuts
1/4 c. shredded coconut
Preparation :
A dessert treat with nuts, coconut and just a touch of
cornmeal. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Roll out dough on floured
surface; fit into 9 inch pie pan. In large bowl, combine sugars,
flour, cornmeal and salt; set aside. In mixer bowl, combine eggs,
butter, milk and vanilla until just mixed--don't let too many
bubbles form. Combine with sugar mixture and blend until smooth.

Mondel Bread
Ingredients :
3 c. flour
3 tsp. baking powder
1 c. sugar
Pinch of salt
3 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
3 tsp. lemon juice
5 oz. oil
Cinnamon
Raisins

Nuts
Preparation :
Mix the dry ingredients together in a large bowl. Make a well in
the middle of the dry ingredients and beat the eggs, vanilla, lemon
juice and oil into it. Separate the dough into 3 equal amounts.
Then roll one portion at a time into a rectangle approximately 12
inches long. Sprinkle the dough, down the center, with cinnamon,
sugar, nuts, raisins and chocolate chips. Then fold the edges in
toward the middle. Bake on greased cookie sheets for 30 to 40
minutes at 350 degrees. Then remove them from the oven and cut them
diagonally into 1 inch wide strips, so that they become cookies.
You then return them to the oven and bake 5 minutes more or until
toasted. HINT: To get the filled dough onto the cookie sheet,
flour 2 spatulas and quickly flip the dough onto the cookie sheet.

Hi Karen,
HRM cookie cutters were produced by the Educational Products Company
in Hope, NJ starting in 1947. They are still selling cookie cutters
under the name "Cookie Craft".
They have a website, and there is a sugar cookie recipe on that site that may be the one you want. See:
Cookie Craft

Hello Beverly,
Could it be "Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch", by Alice Hegan Rice? This was a
very popular children's book written around the turn of the century.
It was even made into a movie in the 1940s.
It's out of print, but there's a copy for sale & picture of the cover here:
Ruby Lane
You can also buy it at Amazon.com They have a couple of used copies for sale.
Another book, or series of children's books, that might be part of what you remember is a series about "Mrs. Piggle Wiggle."
They have these for sale at Amazon as well. See:
Mrs. Piggle Wiggle
