Notes: Grandma Allspach prepared these sweet treats by hand and generally served them only at Christmas. Mom had the advantage of a heavy duty Kitchen Aid mixer which she used to speed preparation along and always included these cookies on gift plates that she prepared for special friends during the holidays.
