Made this for a dinner at my parents' house with some old family friends and everyone LOVED it. There were several other desserts, but everyone passed them up once they tried this trifle. If you're not a big nut fan, I'd suggest just putting them on the top. I love pecans, but my little sis isn't a fan and picked them out of hers. Great, great recipe!!

I'm a first-time cookie press user - my mom found a never-used press from the 1950s or 1960s for me for my birthday - and I thought this recipe was great. Had to add some more flour to get the right texture, but I think that's because I'd allowed the butter to become too softened. After adding the flour, it went through my press beautifully. Loved the almond flavor - will probably add more to my next batch. My husband would have eaten them all last night, and my daughters were begging to have one for lunch today. This batch is for teachers, Sunday school teachers, etc. for Christmas - next batch is all theirs :) Thanks for the great recipe!
