I’m so excited to host this cookie swap with Liz from Hoosier Homemade and Melissa from Stockpiling Moms.
We love cookies at our house, but I have to admit that at Christmas I focus more on making candy rather than cookies. This year, I want to change that up. I can’t wait to see what kind of recipes you have for me to try.
Here are a few of our favorites:
CocoNot Cookies – Not a speck of coconut, but you’d never know it. Fun secret ingredient.
Aunt Gerry’s Pineapple Drop Cookies – A family favorite
Oatmeal White Chocolate Chip and Cranberry Cookies – Very Christmasy!
Amish Oatmeal Cookies – Brown sugary yum and rolled in powdered sugar.

Choosing just one favorite is a big challenge! I would have to choose snickerdoodles. Even though my Mom baked them year-round, I only make them in December. The warm cinnamon scent just says Christmas to me!

My all time favorite holiday cookie is the cuccidata. It is an Italian filled cookie that my grandmother used to make. Filled with all sorts of yummy goodness including chocolate chips and dried fruits.
Mary says
Usually I’m at a loss when someone asks me for a “favorite” of something ~ but I knew right away with this one. Snickerdoodles! Especially on a cold day with a rich cup of warm cocoa. Yum!

I am sharing Coconut Krispies which is certainly one of my favorite cookies. Sorry, you get the little blue linky face. This was one of my first posts back in May, and I wasn’t taking photos yet. Do try they, they are yummy. By the way, I already have the cookbook (of course) so don’t enter me in the contest. Lots of cookie recipes on the blog besides this one. Have a great week.

Roberta says
My 11-year-old grandson just made an Iraqi Crystalized Ginger Cookie recipe which used sesame oil as one of the ingredients. I thought they were going to be horrible, and felt we were wasting the $13.00 we paid for the ginger. However, he was doing it for a social studies project and so I said go for it. Am I ever glad. These were delicious. They now are at the top of my Christmas Cookie list. Although, I have to say I love a nicely decorated sugar cookie too.
Tammy Hildebrandt says
I love a lot of them but I think my favorite is Thumbprint cookies. Delish!!!
Lisa @ Sweet as Sugar Cookies says

Let’s see…do I have to pick just one? My favorite is peanut butter chocolate chip cookies which combines two of my favorite flavors.
The Better Baker says
It’s tough to pick one, but I’d have to say it’s a butter pecan turtle bar cookies. They always SEND me cause they’re so rich and buttery. Thanks for hosting the cookie swap. I’d love to win that cookbook.

My favorite cookie at Christmas time has to be sugar cookies. I think it is more of the experience than the actual cookie. This is one of the few cookies we all make and decorate together as a family!
