Yummy Recipes For Homemade Cookies

Cookies are great any time of the year, but at Christmas, they are extra special. We have many Christmas Cookie recipes to make your
holidays extra sweet. Make some cookies for your family to enjoy, or as a wonderful holiday gift. Don't forget to leave some out for Santa!

Category Archives: Shaped Cookie Recipes

Included are cookies formed by hand into assorted shapes…usually molded into small balls or rolled into pencil-shaped ropes and then formed into various designs, such as wreaths or pretzels. Some cookies retain their shape during baking, while others flatten slightly and become crinkly on top.
