This is almost identical to the old Better Homes and Gardens recipe except it excludes the lemon and rind and instead uses it in the royal icing!! Yum!! Finlely chopped nuts makes it easy to get a thin cookie. Cut out like holly leaf and decorate with red hots and 2 halves of green m&M type candy

I am in Nebraska with three of my four children and a husband of 20 yrs.(the fourth child is in the Army stationed at Fort Bragg) I get to be a stay home mom and LOVE it.(which gives me time to look for new recipes...LOL) We like to camp, play sports,watching movies and lots more. I have a fairly large collection of recipe books, but then you can't ever have enough...right? I came across this site(recipezaar) and instantly fell in love with it.
