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!
I love chocolate chip cookies but for the holidays I want grandma’s sugar cookies.Warm Blessings!~Amy

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.
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!
Choosing one is so hard!! I’d have to say the Peanut Butter Kiss Cookies.
ANTHING with peanut butter and chocolate…so Buckeye’s of Course are at the top of my list!
I follow Taste of Home on facebook.
I love a good decorated sugar cookies. It is a good childhood memory for me.
I follow taste of home on fB.
Our favorite cookie… that’s such a hard question to answer. My husband’s is an Anise Cookie. Mine would have to be a molasses crinkles.
I love sugar cookies! but all cookies are great at Christmas 🙂
At Christmas it’s got to be Fruit Cake Cookies! Yum!
My favorite is peach blossoms made with chocolate stars instead of kisses!
Such a hard pic, but I will have to say they are Andes Mint cookies, just a basic excellent sugar cookie with a minty surprise, love them..
ps: the linky isn’t working or at least I can’t see it.
We love gooey butter cookies – a yellow butter recipe cake mix with cream cheese and butter rolled in powdered sugar.
My all time favorite cookie is snickerdoodle I just love that cinnamon taste.
My mom’s recipe for giant ginger cookies. I could eat those all day!

Christmas is not complete without traditional sugar cut-outs…….but I LOVE the Oatmeal White Chocolate Chip Cranberries!!
I would have to say Mexican Wedding Cookies!

Gingersnaps!
I absolutely love my great grandma’s date and oatmeal cookie. Just brought home the ingredients yesterday. Great Friday project with wonderful memories!
Christmas Sandwich Cremes are my favorite and I LOVE Taste Of Home!!!!
I know it isn’t a “Christmas” thing, but I love the old constant chocolate chip.
Swedish press cookies, with a little swirl of color in the cookie and a bit of colored sugar. They are my son’s favorite and he now makes them with his children.
My favorite Christmas cookies are German Spice Cookies.
I love Taste of Home so I liked them on Facebook. Thanks!
My favorite Christmas cookie would have to be the cut out sugar cookie….decorated with love 🙂 But I am all about Christmas cookies and love many kinds! Last year I made a chocolate covered cherry cookie for our cookie exchange and they were a delish!!!!
Love your blog and all the fantastic recipes you share!!!!!!
SO hard to pick just one! I make peanut blossoms with a reese cup instead of a kiss in the middle for my hubby. They are his favorite and also one of mine!
I love Taste of Home and liked them on facebook. Thanks!
snickerdoodles for sure!
Mexican Wedding( cakes) Cookies and skillet cookies!
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.
I “like'”Taste of Home of Facebook!
I love almost all cookies.(I don’t like any that have raisins or dried fruit in them)I have never had a chocolate chip cookie I didn’t like.
My Favorite cookie is sugar cookies I like to make them for christmas , valentines and at easter time and decorate them they are so yummy….
My favorite cookie is date pinwheel cookies. I never make them but my grandmother always does at Christmas. They are so yummy!
Mexican Wedding Cakes
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.
I love a lot of them but I think my favorite is Thumbprint cookies. Delish!!!
I love gingerbread.
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.
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.
I’m following Taste of Home at Facebook.
My favorite holiday cookie would be anything shortbread! Like those shortbread/butter cookies with the sticky-hardened jelly-type stuff in it! YUM!!!
I follow Taste of Home on Facebook! I don’t have a Twitter account though.

My favorite Christmas cookie is Sour Cream Sugar Cookies. My mom made the best.
my favorite holiday cookie is the almond extract candy cane cookies 🙂
My mom always made her wonderful Buttermilk Cookies each year when I was growing up. They were almost cakelike, but we could roll, cut, and decorate like sugar cookies. Amazing! I need to make those again…
I love the standard sugar cookie with that great icing.

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!
