Hunter Posted November 14, 2020 Author Posted November 14, 2020 Wisconsin Electric Company has been printing a Christmas Cookie Cookbook every year since 1932. They are all free at the company website. https://www.we-energies.com/recipes/cookiebooks/index.htm? What a fun tradition to wait for the new cookbook and make a new cookie every year! The 2020 Cookbook has a fruitcake biscotti that looks interesting https://www.we-energies.com/recipes/cookiebookarchive/cookiebook2020.pdf Quote
