 This Kiss ( keeping it simply simply ) recipe, hails from Zürich, where my younger daughter Nathalia, her husband and my 3 grandchildren, the twins; Fillippo, Christophe and Baby Anthony Luca were born and are being raised. These Snowmen Cookies, are a fave treat, and a tradition, that we prepare them together, when we visit.
