Notes:
This is a favorite Christmas cookie and one of the first I remember making as a child. Every time I make them now, I always think of my mom and Christmas baking. I loved making these with my children and now with my grandchildren. We now prefer dark chocolate and have added chopped candied cherries to make it even more festive.
