It literally brought tears to my eyes the first time I made my Mom’s cookies after her passing. The baking was challenging and fun, but the best part was that first bite, which took me right back to my childhood and brought me closer to her spirit. Fortunately, every cookie that I’ve tried to replicate since then has brought about the same results. It may take me a lifetime to get them to look and taste nearly as perfect as Mom’s but that is a journey I welcome, and I hope you find enjoyable too.
