Please share your favorite Christmas cookie recipe!

OOooh tough

When we were kids we used to make Spritz and use the cookie press to make fancy shapes - we would dye the dough green and red - now as an adult I'm repulsed by artificial color so we won't be doing that, lol!

I'm digging up some new Christmas cookie recipes. . .will share when I find some :)

chocolate crinkles:

candy cane cookies:

snickerdoodles:

peanut butter blossoms:

I've had the candycane cookies and the peanutbutter ones, SO cute-and good!

I can't wait to start baking cookies!! Those chocolate ones look good!

I'll share some of my favorites next time I get home for a weekend.

I'm going to TRY to wait until after Thanksgiving to try out the candy cane cookies. I feel like I'm cheating on Thanksgiving if I start making Christmas stuff early hahaha. But they're so fun!

My mom and aunt dedicate a whole day (they take the day off from work) and then some to making Christmas cookies for everyone

They make :

Cut outs

Spritz

Italian Bar Cookies

Marzapans

Rum Balls

Peanut Blossoms

Chocolate Crinkles

Coconut Balls

Lady Fingers

Thumbprints

Cookies While You Sleep

Almond Something

and a few others I can't remember the names

Its a big deal in my family

Ive helped once or twice ...but I leave it to the pros :)

my mom always made the thumbprint cookies for christmas with jam in the middle :)

Niecy how fun! I have no more days to take off of work-my wedding and HM sucked up all my vacay time. But I think I'm going to dedicate a Saturday to it = ) Thanks for sharing that just made me even more excited about Christmas season coming up

Yes Gina -  my mom always uses her homemade strawberry jam in them .... awesome!  :)
