Mary Lois Sanders (Florida) says:

These are a family tradition at Christmas. I'd add a tsp of Mace to the dough, though. Also, alternate fillings can include cherry, appricot or blackberry preserves. Add a hard sauce of powdered sugar, cream, and almond flavoring as a topper when the rolls come out of the oven, too. (My mom had a sweet tooth!)
