Orange Candy Cookies
If you like orange slice candy you will probably love these
cookies. These are a staple in our family for the holidays. I don’t particularly
like them, but then again I don’t like orange slice candy. I will tell you that
I am in the minority in our family because everyone else loves this recipe.
It’s a very old fashioned recipe that was my Papa’s favorite
cookie during the holidays. I don’t think it would have been Christmas in his
heart without Orange slice candy cookies.
