Personal Notes:
These cookies will melt in your mouth and will quickly become a family favorite. If you would like you can sprinkle with powdered sugar after you fill with jelly. If you are entertaining used 2 or 3 different flavors and colors of jellies, It makes them so pretty to look at and adds a variety.
