Susan Reed (Arkansas) says:
I started making this mix and the Noel Nut Balls when I was a kid, about 1960. I tried the brownie recipe once, but Mom's brownie recipe was better, so that's as far as it went. And so I stuck to the one recipe I'd saved all those years ago. A few years ago, I decided to search online for these recipes I remembered, and here they all are, just as I knew them almost 60 years ago! I've added the Date Nut Bars to my repertoire, and may try some of the others. Right now, my youngest granddaughter, who's about the age I was, is coming over with the specific request to make Noel Nut Balls with Gram!

Been making the Crisco cookie mix since I was a child. I'm now 67. Makes the best sugar cookies to roll and cut with cookie cutters. Also the snowy brownies are awesome!

Lynn Butler (Arizona) says:
My mother cut this recipe from a magazine when I was a kid. I'm 78. She used it from then on and so do my sister and I. Our family consider these sugar cookies and Noel nut bars the only real Christmas cookies. Until the last couple of years I still had the original clipping but it disappeared. I was so happy to find the recipes on line.

I've used THE MIX for so many years. Last year I saved a a container-full. Will it still be good to use this year?
