SNOWDROPS
When I think of Xmas or Mennonite baking, I think of these delicious melt-in-your-mouth bites. When I was too lazy to make them, I used to be able to get them at the local farmers market.

CHRISTMAS SNOW DROP COOKIES
From "Pots & Pipkins," which is older than my daughter and from Virginia. A Christmas must have for this family...similar to a Mexican wedding cookie or a pecan sandy. We prefer the almonds (I have used both slivered and whole) to save the pecans for other Christmas desserts!
