Holiday Gumdrop Cookies
Making these cookies, I feel that I'm keeping my mother's Christmas spirit alive. They were her special treat each year at holiday time. They're also great for keeping kids busy. They can cut up the gumdrops and eat all the black ones that would turn the dough gray if you put them in the batter. —Letah Chilston, Riverton, Wyoming
