5 Delicious Holiday Cookie Recipes

1. Lindt Shortbread Cookies
I had to start with these cookies. We made them for the first time last year and they were uh-maz-ing. For me they were actually kind of dangerous because I physically could not stop eating them, that’s how good they were! They are easy to make too so I would definitely put this holiday cookie recipe on your baking list.

3. Gingerbread Cookies
Gingerbread is a classic during the holiday season. They take a little more effort than regular cookies but are totally worth it. Plus, it’s fun for the kids to help out, especially when it comes time for the icing.

4. The Best Chocolate Chip Cookies
These are seriously the best chocolate chip cookies ever. The recipe comes from Pinch of Yum. We make them all year-round, so of course they are a must during the holidays. You can even make them a bit for festive by adding green and red M&M’s instead of regular chocolate chips.
