Every year we make small homemade treats for our neighbors. It’s nothing too fancy but we feel like it’s an important gesture. This year we delivered little Christmas Chinese take out boxes filled with these sweet treats. The first were these Lace Cookies. I chose this recipe because the pictures were beautiful and this cookie…
Garlic Pull Apart Bread (92)
