    Christmas Cookie Recipes Everyone Will Love

    Published: Dec 1, 2015 · Modified: May 14, 2021 by Kelly Stilwell · This post may contain affiliate links 2 Comments

    Who's ready for Christmas cookie recipes? It's almost that most wonderful time of the year! Actually, according to Walmart, we've been in the Christmas season since the day after Halloween, but that's another story!!

    Christmas Cookie Exchanges are so much fun, and I’ve put together a round-up of some of my favorite recipes to give you lots of options!

    Some of my favorites are these Peppermint Mocha Cookies and these White Chocolate Biscotti. Share this with your friends! I'd so appreciate the love!

    Cookies are always a perfect dessert idea and make a great gift idea, too! Need a hostess gift? Put a dozen cookies in a gift bag along with the recipe! Let your hostess know they can be frozen for a treat after the holidays, too!
