When you think of Christmas Cookies, what types do you think of?

Every year for the past 15 years, my step daughter and I have a Cookie making day to give out to neighbors, and family & friends.  We are looking to add 1 or 2 more types of cookies to our list.  Here is the list that we make currently...

Cut out cookies

No Bake

Chocolate Mint

Chocolate Rolo

Chocolate Truffle

Snickerdoodle

Buckeyes

Peanut Butter Blossoms

 

*Yes there is a lot of peanut butter and chocolate on the list ;) 

Any other suggestions for what we can add to this list?

 

Thanks!

    I do Italian wedding cookies, snickerdoodles, and amarettis.

    What are Italian Wedding Cookies?  Do you have a link to the recipe you use by chance?

    I always do frosted cutout cookies, spritz cookies, and buckeyes.  Sometimes if I have time I'll make oreo balls and homemade peppermint bark.
    My grandma used to make Spritz and I loved them!  I have tried to make them and am never satisfied with how they turn out.  Do you have a recipe for the ones you make?  Id love to try again!

    I love cathedral windows! My nanny always made them. I think I'm going to attempt them for the first time this year.

    We'll have
    Chocolate fudge
    Peanut butter fudge
    Sugar cookies with frosting and sprinkles
    Fruitsnaps (soft gingersnaps with glacé cherries and raisins)
    Blonde bourbon fruitcake
    Chocolate mint crinkles or mint merengues

    I'm going to try pineapple upside down cake cookies for the first time this year. The recipe was in the Rachel Ray magazine last month.

    And I usually make a batch of reindeer crunch at some point (corn chex, pretzel sticks, m&ms covered in white chocolate)

  • Shaped and iced sugar cookies

    My Mom's former best friend had THE best recipe for these (both the cookies and icing were from scratch).... nice and soft, sweet but not overly sweet.... just...perfect.... The icing was thick on top BUT so light and not too overwhelming in flavor (I usually don't like icing, especially not thick, but these were special)..it all just melted in your mouth.

    She made them for us for all holidays, not just Xmas....shapes/characters/colors particular to whatever holiday.

    Dammit, why did their friendship have to end...
