Almond Orange Lace Cookies
These make the perfect gift. Anytime of year, not just at Christmix time. I think a homemade gift is such a lovely thing to receive and it is kind of fun to gift as well, don’t you agree? I love getting a little home baked foodie something. Put these on your to do list. I just love them, and they wouldn’t be half bad, if half dipped into dark or white chocolate...just sayin’.
(And it is nearly Christmas in July...so what better excuse? I couldn’t think of a better one!)
Enjoy.
