This is sooo funny. I saved this as unread so that I could upload it to my
E-cookbook (Thank you Bob Ross!!! Merry Christmas to you and I pray all is
healthy and happy in your household!!). So, this morning I thought I'd
peruse the recipe. Imagine my surprise when I couldn't find out how much
bourbon to use. I thought I'd saved a recipe for BOURBON Christmas Cookies.
Ha! I was wondering if it was going to be a variation to the old Rum Ball
recipe... LOL!
