I love these cookies. I just made a batch of them. I make them at Christmastime because it brings back memories of when I was a little girl. My mother has made these for as long as I remember and has passed along the recipe to me. I'm so glad that someone else has this recipe and I hope that you enjoy it as much as I do.
