Personal Notes:
This is a recipe from Mary Waishwell's Aunt Mary Gillette, the woman Mom lived with and worked for when she was growing up in Pennsylvania. I can't imagine that she actually made this with whiskey as she was a very stern lady, but its fun to include this bit of family food history anyway.
