Happy tears in my eyes as I'm making my great-grandmother's famous Christmas cookies today. She brought the recipe with her from Spain. She passed away in 2000 and my grandmother passed away in 2008. My family thought the recipe was lost, but I got it from my grandma before she passed. Through lots of research I was able to closely mimic the wine the recipe calls for, and so now I'm having these cookies for the first time since 2006. Lots of very happy memories, here.
