This is a great resource for Christmas Cookie Baking! If you aren’t sure where to start, you have come to the right place.
There are so many things that I love about the holiday season . . . . decorating, the Christmas music, the giddiness of my kids as we do each and every holiday tradition, the first snow fall, wrapping presents, the filling of the Advent calendar, the talking about the meaning of the season, the quality time with family and friends . . .
The baked goods.
You guys, I LOVE holiday baking. It’s like everything I just mentioned wrapped up in a delicious treat, plus I do it with friends, so it’s extra amazing! I have some go to family favorites that I make every year, but I like to mix it up and make something new too.

Thanks Lisa for such awesome ideas. All the recipes are looking yummy! I must try triple chocolate turtle cookies for my 4-year old Emma. She loves chocolate very much.
