What is a holiday without cute little cookies that you get to let the kiddos decorate? Those memories still call to me from MY childhood – as far back as 40 years ago. I love thinking back to how Mom made these moments special for us and hope that I am paying it forward for Miss Sarah by helping her make the same kinds of warm and fuzzy memories to pass on to her kids some day…with our family Cream Cheese Cut Out Cookies recipe.
