Nut Rolls
This recipe is from my Mother-In-Law, Marie Shea. Mom loved to bake for friends and family. The Nut Rolls were a staple…she baked it so often. Everything that she made was from scratch, and most of the time she didn’t even look at a recipe. Don’t get me wrong…she always had the recipe there in case if she needed it.
