oh look - CHRISTMAS ROCKS!! that's what they're called in our family. my grandmother used to make them every year and put them away in coffee cans with wax paper between the layers. then at xmas, wherever we lived, we'd get coffee cans full of cookies... and they are wonderful. now my brother makes them and his are even better than hers (maybe because he's big and strong enough to wrestle the dough - our grammy was 4'10"). your recipe looks much like ours - which calls for a cup of coffee and a little jar of jelly. everybody: make these, they are luscious.
