A Special Holiday Cookie Recipe From Our CEO
My family has been making these cookies for generations. My Grandma baked them with my Mom, then my Mom baked them with my siblings and me, and I baked them with my children. They are little bites of love built together by my children and me in a kitchen. They are our favorites, and we hope you enjoy them as much as we do.
