Personal Notes:
My Mom (Roberta Haining Drain) and my Aunt (Elsie Haining Boucher) made these every year for Christmas. I hadn't made them for years but then in 2013 (I think) I made them and the aroma brought back many wonderful Christmas memories of them baking for Christmas. I've made them for Christmas since I "discovered" them again!
