We have been very busy Christmas elves again this year! Gianna was able to help use shake on sprinkles for the Rainbow & Spritz cookies and even helped with the Tarales! What is your favorite kind of holiday treat?? Do you have any traditions? Our family has been making Struffoli since before the dinosaurs! Each year we gather to make these delicious honey balls. As a kid, I would make them with my great grandmother, grandmother and mom. My children now make them with their grandmother. It's such a blessing to celebrate Struffoli Day, as we call it!
