Sounds great...I've made the rolled out cream cheese type, but love the drop idea...thanks for a great post!


Yep it does sound good, great post.


My Mother used to make these every christmas for cookie gifts. I have continued the tradition with my daughters with a slight variation. You roll the dough into 1 1/2 inch balls , place on cookie sheet and press with either red or green candies cherries cut in half. when fresh out of the oven, sprinkle with powered sugar. The look so pretty and taste so good.
