Anyway, it's that time of the year for baked goods and lots of delicious food. So here's Food for the Gods again. I posted this in January of 2011. Redundant, yes, but so appropriate for the holiday season. Red and green cellophane wrapper. Threw in clear cellophane as well to brighten the goodies. Reposting the recipe and including vanilla which I missed in the previous post (Malou, thanks for prompting me about this).
Wrapped and ready to go ...
Here's the recipe:
