Put one bag of spice drops in a separate bowl and add 1 tbsp. of flour. Slice the spice drops. (If you need the second bag, just add as you go along.)
It makes it easy if you dip the knife in water before you slice the drops. Make sure you fill a full cup.

Notes: Hi Friends,
This recipe was a favorite Christmas cookie for Wayne growing up. I wanted to honor Wayne's mom, so I took over the tradition. I have made them for 37 years and they have continued to be a family favorite. I hope you enjoy them!
