Recipe Introduction
Winner Shere Case of Hickory Hills describes her cookie entry: "Holiday
preparation usually starts in September and continues until the night
before
Christmas. I have been doing this for almost 18 years, and each year I
add
more recipes. This particular cookie, passed on to me by my sister-
in-law,
Diana Forkash of Wisconsin, ranks among the favorites of the family and
friends. It looks absolutely gorgeous on a plate, tastes wonderful and
is
absolutely the easiest thing to make. There is no baking time involved,
and
you can sit down on the job and enjoy doing them."
