My mother made these when I was a small child and I have been making them all of my married life(married at 18) and I am now 61. My kids love them and everyone I know loves them. A bit of a pain to make, but, well worth the effort!!!!!!! They are good for wedding showers with wedding colors as filling colors. They not only taste wonderful but they look pretty also!

I loved them! You have to use a certain shape to make them all the same size (a circle works nice). You have to watch them because they burn very easily. The difference between burned and just right may be about 45 seconds. These cookies are fabulous and I will definitely make them again :D

I have been making these since 1967 when a lady at work made them and sold them. Then I discovered they were in my Betty Crocker cookbook. I have made them every year since as it wouldn't be Chanukah without them.
