15 Fabulous Christmas Cookies
Change up your Christmas cookie game this year with these 15 fabulous Christmas cookies that will wow your friends and family!
This is one of my favorite times of year, Christmas Cookie season! The variety, the love, the flavors. I never get tired of cookies during the holidays, because it’s like a sugary and carby love bomb! I rounded up 10 of my favorite easy christmas cookie recipes that will wow your friends and family. This is a time for sharing joy, and I can’t think of a better way to do it.
It’s always hard to pick a favorite. Now that my grandmother is no longer able to spend the time and hours dedicated to making her traditional cookie platter, the torch has been passed on to me and my mom. We have taken those “Volcano Cookies” as we call them and made them part of our tradition. Czech tradition calls them Beehive cookies, but sticking to Grandma’s interpretation of them, they resemble more volcanoes than beehives.
And there is always lots of choices to make when it comes to sharing your Christmas cookies. Everyone wants their own “signature bake”, so I hope that one of these will make their way to your christmas cookie platter, too!
