These are one of my favorite christmas cookies – my mom usually makes them for us.

I think I have a Winter Song problem. I can’t stop listening to that song. I lurve it too!!!

So, they are Russian tea cakes! Who knew?!? All I know is that it is my grandmother’s recipe and she brought it with her from Pennsylvania. Thanks for letting me know!

Oh Anne… you are a dear friend. No worries. As my Italian relatives say ‘fugetaboutit!’

Merry Christmas friends! xoxo

I feel like a terrible friend. I haven’t been back here since you came back until now…I am sorry. I have some catching up to do….

I love these cookies, they are similar to Russian Tea Cakes that I make every year – yum.

Merry Christmas!

I promise to be a better blog reader after the holidays.

I have a serious problem with Pecan Crescents/Russian tea cakes. I absolutely cannot resist them!

I LURVE the Winter Song….and Pecan Crescents … we had them every Christmas when I was growing up, although I think we called them something different.

Have a great day!

yep, i think they are the same as the russian tea cakes i make – essentially. i like to do a second roll in powdered sugar after they cool, too. and yeah, sugar all over your shirt!
