Personal Notes:
This is such a pretty cookie to add to Christmas gift plates. I found it in a magazine about 5 years ago and now bake every Christmas to make cookie trays prettier. They are beautiful and delicious. Also served at a cookie swap and have been asked for the recipe more times than I can count.
