Today I thought I would share a YUMMY Christmas cookie recipe with you. I have made lots and lots of cookies to give as Christmas gifts and I thought I would share one of my favorites with you!
I don't know why I only make them at Christmas time, maybe because they have always just seemed like a Christmas cookie.
Cookies are definately part of the magic. What else could you possibly leave out for santa?
OH MY GOSH!! I am getting so excited for a Day spent in the kitchen baking dozens and dozens of holiday cookies! YUMMO!!!!! Yep, that about sums it up...hehehe
