Christmas Kiss Blossoms Christmas Kiss Blossoms have been a tradition in my family since I can remember. I always remember going to my Grandma Jean's house on Christmas Eve and having some Christmas Kiss Blossoms. These are not only nostalgic for me, but are super festive and delicious!Mike and I make these without peanut butter as our two young sons have allergies to peanuts. The funny thing is that we like them better than the original recipe (and we LOVE peanut butter). So no disappointment here. We hope you enjoy these Christmas Kiss Blossoms as much as we do!
