A friend of mine brought these cookies and recipe to our annual Cookie Exchange. They are very similar to a stained glass cookie, with the pretty top, but they also taste delicious and would be great plain too. You can also cut them into fun shapes with cookie cutters or make them as drop cookies. A favorite for Christmas now!
