20+ Christmas Cookie Recipes

One of my favorite things about this time of year is getting to make (and eat!) lots of candy and cookies. Every year I usually make a bunch of Christmas candy and cookies to give to coworkers, friends, and family as gifts.
If you haven’t noticed, I love baking and getting to share that with others is such a fun thing for me.
Since Christmas is just around the corner, I’ve decided to round up over 20+ Christmas cookie recipes that are perfect for the holidays! Whether you love mint and chocolate, cranberries, egg nog, or even snowball cookies, there’s a recipe in here for you.
