My Grandma made these cookies a Christmas Tradition. If ever there was a cook, and should anything I make ever turn out perfect....It has to be her genes being passed down. She made the tastiest treats! This is one of those recipes that taste like home to me, but they have a little different flavor. Try them and they may become your new christmas cookie tradition.
