Directions
Mom’s Christmas Swedish Meatballs, My mom found this recipe years ago in the newspaper and has perfected it over the years We all make it every year for Christmas, it just isn’t Christmas without these luscious meatballs!, I scaled the recipe back to make a 1/4 of the recipe and got 20 35gram meatballs so had enough for 3 of us and some left over when served over pasta I did have to use half thick cream and hi lo milk to make the sauce and it was still very rich so much so that I could only eat 3 of my meatballs and half the pasta but the meatballs were absolutely delicious Made in pammyowls memory for here cookathon

Note: at This Point, We Generally Freeze Them and Then Defrost and Bake For an Hour or So on Christmas, as This Recipe Makes a Lot of Meatballs, So It Is Time Consuming and Who Wants to Do All That on the Day of, Right?. |

Also, You Can Freeze the Cooked Meatballs Alone, and Make the Gravy Later and Pour It Over the Meatballs Right Before You Bake Them. |
