When I was little I remember my mother making these every Christmas. She passed away when we were still young. When I moved out on my own I found her recipe. I have been making them at Christmas time for my family ever since I’ve been married. My husband and children love them and I always remember to share a few with my siblings. Sweet memories of our beautiful mother Rita.
