Buttermilk Christmas Cookies image

This recipe was developed by my 80 year old German grandfather in his days as a chef at a family restaurant. We make these cookies every year as part of our holiday tradition, and usually have many to give away.

I'm not sure how I feel about the combination of buttermilk and Christmas cookies, but I'm willing to try them.

I'm allergic to dairy, so I'm wondering if I can substitute the buttermilk with something else.
