Iced Lemonade Cookies

Lemon zest and freshly squeezed lemon juice makes these sweet little refreshing cookies the perfect break from all the holiday chocolate. They're slightly chewy with just the right amount of sweet to compliment the sour.


Snickerdoodles


Cinnamon and sugar make for one awesome and classic holiday cookie. These guys are quick and easy to throw together and make the whole house smell like butter and cinnamon perfection. Snickerdoodles are also great for getting help in the kitchen from our little friends! Depending on age and skill level, kids can jump in and help roll them in cinnamon sugar or go all the way up to making these guys all by themselves.

Chocolate Cookies with White Chocolate Chips (Crack Cookies)

This has been my hands down most popular and beloved cookies recipe for years. I can post something about taking them out of the oven and people will magically appear on our doorstep. They really are that good, thus are affectionately nicknamed Crack Cookies for their addictive taste. I'm giving away some big secrets here, so hang on to your hats folks. My youngest son helped make this batch, because they're his favorite, too. They're very kid friendly to make.
