When I think of the holiday season, I think of holiday cookie recipes. I love making easy Christmas cookie recipes with few ingredients for a cookie exchange or holiday party.
Christmas celebrations aren’t complete without the best holiday cookies. We have found the easiest cookie recipes with simple ingredients.
You can make multiple cookies and put together a beautiful cookie tray, holiday cookie box or cookie plate. It’s a fun way to bring a treat for Christmas dinner or a Christmas party.
A family tradition of ours is to make homemade cookies on Christmas Eve. It’s a great way to get into the holiday spirit. We use basic recipes so the kids can help make them.
One of the best things about these easy cookie recipes is that they use minimal ingredients. That makes Christmas shopping easier and baking a simple process.
This time of year can be stressful, but with these easy recipes will make baking so much fun and relaxing. And so many are gluten or allergen free!
Some of the recipes you will find in this post are easy peanut butter cookies, easy sugar cookies, chocolate chip cookies and easy gingerbread cookies. Soft molasses cookies, peanut butter blossoms, and many other classic cookies.
We have so many options that there will be a cookie for everyone. So take a look and make a list of which ones you will make. I’d love to hear!
