Christmas is a time for making memories but also remembering those who were part of my past. I saw this box mix from @kingarthurbaking and knew I had to make them in honor of my Aunt Annie.
I did not get to see my aunt often as we had moved away for my father’s job. The times I did come to St. Louis for family visits, I could count on my aunt making a batch of her famous Russian tea cookies. I just loved the almondy butter flavor with the hit of powdered sugar at the end! They, of course, melted in my mouth and I suspect I was rather “piggish” in my grabbing for extra cookies before the family descended to the table. I know I am older now, but I am grateful for my family and the traditions and recipes they passed down to me. I am thrilled I can now add these cookies to my rotation during the holidays until I can get my cousins to share the recipe!
