Hi Reader, I bake (and eat!) more cookies during the Christmas season than I do all year. I've followed my mom's tradition of baking cookies to give to neighbors, family, and friends for years. It simply wouldn't be Christmas if I didn't bake sugar cookies, gingerbread men, biscotti and more. I mean, how could I possibly choose just one recipe? Or five? There truly isn’t anything more special than a homemade gift, and for me (and my mom), baked goods make many hearts very happy during the holidays. I’ve got five delicious cookie recipes for you today, but if you want more ideas, see my Ultimate Christmas Cookie Box includes 30 different recipes! The Ultimate Christmas Cookie BoxThere’s nothing more perfect for the holidays than show stopping Christmas cookie boxes filled with an array of cookies, candy, and festive decorations. And they’re easier to put together than you might imagine. To make it even easier, I’ve compiled a step-by-step guide for planning and creating your own signature holiday cookie boxes. Plus 30 recipes for cookies, no-bake treats, bars, and desserts in just about every color, flavor and size.
