APRICOT CRESCENTS
When I was in college, my roommate's mother sent these flaky horns in a holiday care package. I've been making them ever since. When I mail them to my parents, I put an equal number in two tins labeled "his" and "hers" so there's no squabbling over who gets more. - Tamyra Vest, Scottsburg, Virginia
