These have been a family favorite for many years!
ReplyDeleteSometimes the old family favorites are the BEST! :)
DeleteYes, I agree with Anne above. These have been a traditional holiday cookie in my family as well. Depending on what is available, we sometimes make them with walnuts instead of pecans. I have both types of nut trees growing on my property. Family loves them either way.
ReplyDeleteSome years I forget about them, they are always a favorite of my family. Lucky YOU with two types of nut trees growing on your property, my family only gets to live with one nut - ME! LOL
