NOTE: *psssst… these are indeed a GOOD cookie; maybe even the “bestest”…to many, however, to my family, my mother’s were the best cookies ever! She made them EVERY Christmas. I’ll get to THAT recipe SOON.

I’ve got to get my mother’s recipe down because my mother is gone and oh how we all looked forward to those cookies ♡ Coming soon 😀
