What kind of christams cookies do you make?

[ktzmoh]

This weekend I'm making cookies for Christmas.

I'm making:

Chocolate chunk
Peanutbutter kiss
Molasses spice
Sugar cookies
Homemade marshmallows and cocoa mix (for the neighbors)



What do you typically make?

This year, so far: pecan balls, lemon ginger crinkles, salted oatmeal cookies, chocolate crinkles w/peanut butter centers, jam thumprints w/coconut.

Sometimes I make a molasses spice cookie, cranberry/orange bars, and a few others. But I pick and choose each year.

This is our usual list, but I am not sure how much we will get done this year.

Snowballs (mexican wedding cookies or whatever other name you call them)

A cookie that we don't know the real name of....a sour cream drop cookie with brown butter icing and a half pecan on top. Someone gave my mom the recipe and wrote "Good cookies" at the top, so we have always called the Good Cookies.lol

We also make a recipe that was my great grandmothers, and no one else in the world seems to make anything like it. It is very simple, but it is special to our family, and is the first cookie we make for the holiday season.

biscotti (cranberry pistachio w/white chocolate)

a knock off of Starbucks cranberry white chocolate bars....I forget the name. Joelen from TN had it in her blog.


I sometimes try to make one thing with chocolate (homemade peanut butter cups) and/or coconut, since DH loves both, but we get gifted a lot of chocolate so he is ok with us not baking anything with it since I don't eat it.

Usually puppy chow or white chocolate snack mix
Frosted sugar cookies
banqet (Dutch "Butter Letter") is my FAVORITE. I need to find some almond paste so I can make that this year. Mmmm.
