| This recipe actually serves 12-16 depending on how much you are willing to share! This cake is SO moist and yummy! If you get people past the fact that it has mayo in it you won't have any left overs. In the word of one of my students "It's so good it makes you want to slap yo' mama!". Enjoy!!!
Editor Note: The mayonnaise is replacing the oil normally used in most cake recipes with less the fat.

| Christmas 2006 was one of MawMaw's best Christmas ever; family, friends, food and fun and the Cajun's joi de vie. One of the best gifts of love and food she received were cookies that were homemade from one of MawMaw's best friends, Miss Veronica. Her friends call her Miss Vee.
These cookies were some of the best MawMaw ever ate(and Maw Maw loves to eat). Miss Vee said to make sure to tell everyone that the recipe is on the Crisco sticks product marker; however Miss Vee did add a cup of chopped pecans to the recipe. |
| Best Christmas cookies I have ever had! Don't let the title fool you, they don't taste like fruit cake they just look like it. Not yet rated |
