I decided to send long distance cousins baked goods this Xmas, especially the 6 cousins who donated to a charity walk I took part in last month.
I have fruit soaking in rum, which is early for me.
I plan to send small fruitcakes, possibly kourabiedes (the Greek version of the snowball / wedding cookie / Russian tea cake), and cherry pistachio thins. maybe also Pink Sin/ Pink Ladies.
edit:
my cherry pistachio thins are actually these icebox cookies. I substitute dried cherries for dried cranberries.
oh Jeez, am I ever becoming repetitive in my old age lol.
Our cookie box assortment for holiday gifting when I was growing up was Diples, Kourabiedes, Karidopita and Baklava.
