    I don’t have a single favourite holiday cookie recipe. In fact, I have so many favourites that I can’t make them all every year!!! But some I make every year are butter cookie cutouts, Nutella-filled Spitzbuben, soft gingerbread, and cinnamon stars. The list of recipes I consider making consists of at least 100 recipes, but I usually stop at a mere 20 varieties…

    I love candy cane shortbread comes. We had a blast making them as kids and the joy is still there making them with the grandkiddies!

    There are so many! I think I’m going to go with one we used to make in home economics. My favorite teacher gave me the recipe for French Chocolate Meringues.

    My favorite holiday cookie recipe is either my no bake chocolate oatmeal cookies so I can make a lot at a time or my spritz cookies so I can decorate them!

    My favorite is anything with ginger, pecans or walnut, including gingerbread men and women, pecan sandies and crescents and walnut anything.

    I like any cookie with nuts, chocolate, real vanilla extract or the little vanilla beans themselves and / or coconut. Please don’t make me choose just one recipe.

    This recipe seems very simple and I can’t wait to try. I am sure I could think of other decorations for the top too. I am ready to get creative.

    I love shortbread, I add different things to the dough like chocolate, crushed candy canes, snipped dried cherries or canberries. Yum

    Happy Holidays to all; my favorite Christmas cookies are French Lace Crisps. Made with pecans, karo syrup and a few other ingredients. 1 dropped tsp of the batter spreads out to 4 or 5 inches of lacy, crispy sweet nuts. Amazing! Can’t keep them in the pantry.

    Candy Canes – the recipe is one from the 1950’s my Mother made when I was growing up and I still make them every year – they are a family favorite.

    My grandmother’s soft drop sugar cookies. When I was a little girl she told me this was the first cookie she baked with her great-grandmother. The story is these cookies could add a little bit of sunshine to your day because lemon was one of the ingredients! ???

    A special holiday favourite is my mom’s recipe for Raspberry Shorts. I think they’re also called thumbprint cookies in some places.

    I love making pecan pie bars. I love the short bread crust, I make it different each time. The sugary layer, so ooey and gooey, like going to heaven. And the crunch of pecans, roasted to perfection. And sometimes drizzled with dark chocolate, just out of this world. Have also tried with macadamia nuts and it is just as wonderful!

    Tough choice! If I would have to choose one, I guess it would be Russian Tea Cakes. There’s nothing like them! I make them every Christmas.

    It’s been a long time since I made cutout cookies, but now that I have grandchildren, it’s time to start doing it again.

    Pecan Sandies (I also add cocoa powder to part of the batter) By doing this all of the chocolate lovers in my family can enjoy their chocolate fix,

    Nothing beats old fashioned sugar cookies. Reliving childhood memories with my kids, making a mess, decorating so many different ways

    tough choice — grandma’s shortbread; or pferrnusse, or a Mexican cocoa cookie I encountered a few years back — so many choices, but I gotta go with grandma’s shortbread FTW

    My favorite cookie to make and bake at Christmas is the traditional Toll House chocolate chip cookies but I add in dried cranberries & pecans. I also love Preacher Cookies and Pecan Sandies. I LOVE anything chocolate though so there’s always various kinds of chocolate treats here!

    My favorite Christmas cookie is any cookie that comes my way. I really enjoy making the Hello Dolly Cookies. These cookies are very rich with the coconut, chocolate chips, nuts and sweetened condensed milk.
