THE VERY BEST FRUITCAKE COOKIES AND OUR CHRISTMAS DINING ROOM

Merry Christmas to all.....
We are heading into Christmas week
so it's time to slow down a bit and just enjoy
the spirit of the season, listen to beautiful music,
wrap the gifts and just relax and be grateful for another Christmas!
I did want to share my all time favorite cookie
that my Daddy made every year......
his beautiful and delicious Fruitcake cookies!
I first shared this in a 2010 post....they are that good!
I know, I know.....you are thinking you cannot stand
fruitcake and there is no way you would make cookies
with this dough, but trust me on this.....
you will not be able to stop eating these amazingly
fabulous, great tasting cookies!


The kitchen smelled exactly like Christmas on this day.......


These taste like Christmas....all the cherries, pineapple pecans and raisins.....
along with the touch of nutmeg....oh heavenly days.....


What a beautiful gift too!
