Hi friends, good morning!
I FINALLY am feeling better and back to my peppy self. And I attribute that to eating lots of cookies. Cookies are good for the soul, which is why they are worthy of a whole post.
We are cookie monsters in our house. Well, let me rephrase. I am the instigator who loves the cookies.
I bake them upon craving. Ed just goes along with it. I urge him to take them to his accounts, but that doesn’t always happen.
But somehow they always get eaten.
So, as a cookie lover, I’m here to share some fun cookie recipes with you for your holiday parties.
We’re splitting them up into a bunch of different yummy categories, so hopefully this helps inspire you!

Gotta have a little bit of everything, right Meah?!
Wrote down quite a few of these, Sarah….Yummy!
Have a Merry Christmas!!! I’m sure it will be wonderful in Rhode Island for Christmas…enjoy!
I’m sure it will… I wish I would be there! 🙂
This is SERIOUSLY the best cookie round up! Thanks so much for including my sweet and spicy peanut butter buds!
Thanks Ellie! Your cookies will be making an appearance for our Christmas spread!
The thing that I love is that we can come back and bake cookies throughout the year, because this will definitely need reviewing throughout the year. And I love celebrating Christmas in a way, year round! 🙂
Absolutely! Cookies are a must any time of year!
I want alllll of these cookies!! Thanks for including my Spicy Ginger Cookies!! Happy holidays! XO
I can’t wait to make them Chelsey!
Well, not like I NEEDED more cookie recipes (to hoard on my overflowing pinterest board), but why the hell not.. I want to make them all. My family thanks you in advance for the mess that my kitchen will be from here on in.
I definitely like a mix. I need my traditional biscotti and mom’s fudge and shortbread, but I balance that out for everyone with my “weirder” concoctions. As long as there’s lots of chocolate. But nothing beats a solid old chocolate chip cookie, especially with sea salt. Drooling.
Love having a mix, a little bit of everything for everyone or depending on the feeling. Sea salt can transform any cookie for me!
Last year I found a recipe for Twix Cookie cups and those made it to the top of my family’s favorite list!
Yum, that sounds so fun!
So many yummy cookies to try! Thanks so mch for including my Cranberry Bliss Cookies!
They look so good, I bought all the ingredients!
These all look so good! I hope I can find some time to bake one more batch of holiday cookies!
I love having a variety of cookies!

I haven’t baked a single Christmas cookie yet as I’ve been so busy – but that NEEDS to change!
