It’s that time of year again!

We love the holidays here in the Tarragon kitchen and some of our favorite holiday traditions involve the exceptional baked goods that come steaming out of the oven. This month’s Featured Recipe is for Judy’s Christmas Cookies. Put these on the table for the family at your holiday celebration!

Happy Holidays from Tarragon!
