Every year, I bake my favorite Christmas cookies and add a couple of new recipes that look delicious. No matter how many cookies I bake, they always quickly disappear.
Friends and family are always excited to receive their Christmas cookies as gifts. Some cookies travel really well. For years, I have been included in a cookie swap and always look forward to seeing what other blogger bakers are creating this holiday season. Locally, my friends have a cookie party, bringing three dozen of their favorite baked cookies to swap, along with libations and fun conversation.
Whatever your cookie traditions are, I hope you find these cookies a delicious choice for your cookie platters! Merry Christmas, friends! May your holiday be sweet!
