Christmas Eve is my favorite holiday, but Easter is a close second. I love getting the girls dressed up for church (although, these days, they take care of most of the primping themselves), I love any excuse to eat chocolate, and I love passing on holiday traditions. Starting the day off with Mass, and then eating ourselves into oblivion…what could be better?
This year, I made a batch of rainbow cookies (aka seven layer cookies) with my eldest daughter, and some pignoli cookies. I’ll also be making dandelion soup, a traditional Southern Italian dish that my grandmother used to make every year.
Wishing you a Blessed & Happy Easter!
My son would love all that colour. I only make cookies from a box!!I know, I must do better. I'll try and make what you have from start to finish, it looks great. Did you just add food colouring?
You divide the batter into three equal amounts, and add color to two of them (25 drops of green to one, 25 drops of red to the other).
