There’s nothing that says Christmas holidays than yummy desserts and sweet treats! The smell of cinnamon and apples baking can literally make your mouth begin to water. I am sharing a recipe here of something that brings a lot of childhood memories to me! The first time I tasted these treats called Christmas Wreaths was in the second grade in elementary school. A classmate’s mother made them and brought them to school for our class Christmas party. Now, my mom makes them when my family has a holiday get together every Christmas. Enjoy this holiday recipe: Christmas Wreaths.
