Author Notes
So my boys definitely think this is “the most wonderful time of the year” because I bake at least 5 different kinds of Christmas cookies. Most are my mother's recipes, this one included with a really stupid name. But the cookies are really, really good. Okay, so the recipe calls for processed things, usually a no-no for me, but at Christmas, I give in. Here goes. —MaryFrancesCooks
