I received this recipe from my mom when she gave me my first manual cookie press.
Now, I have the electric cookie press. I make these cookies for di erent holidays but
primarily at Christmas. The ones I made would be green trees with sprinkles and
white or red poinsettia with candied red or green cheery in the middle. The other
cookies made into ribbons and white poinsettias have melted dark chocolate with
sprinkles added by my husband, Ron. This is Sean, my son-in-law’s favorite cookie.
Todd loved the ribbon cookies with the dark chocolate that Ron would add.
