This is my mom's recipe- but this is the one my sister Kathy always makes for party and holiday's- after all her last name is McGuire. This is a smaller version than she usually makes- because I am not a big fan of pistachio anything.I use this smaller version. Kathy makes a Pistachio Fruit Pudding too- I will post that one too..Enjoy for the holiday.
