Holiday Cookie Roundup

Dec 10, 2018 · Leave a Comment

This post may contain affiliate links, please see my privacy policy for details.

Every year, I host a cookie exchange party and it’s SO FUN! I’m so sad that, this year, I’ve been so sick that I had to cancel the party.  I just didn’t have enough time to get it together.

But, my loss is your gain.  Instead of baking, I stayed in my PJs and made a roundup of my favorite cookies to make for the holidays!  I hope you have time to make some of these cookies and send me the pictures so I can see how they turned out.

a holiday cookie roundup with 12 of my favorite holiday cookie recipes

  1. 5 Ingredient toasted pecan snowball cookies – a classic Christmas cookie that is simply to make and only 5 Ingredients!
  2. Chocolate Rolo stuffed crinkle cookies – these cookies are just as tasty as they are beautiful
  3. Salted caramel chocolate chip cookie – while I especially love these cookies around the holidays, they are my on the top of my list all year-round
  4. Vanilla bean chocolate chunk cookie – because one can never have enough chocolate chip cookie recipes
  5. 5 Ingredient chewy brownie cookies – what’s better that combining an ooey gooey brownie together with a cookie?!  
  6. Chocolate dipped hazelnut cookies – a classic flavor combination helps to create one a delish, freezer-friendly cookie that’s perfect at holiday time
  7. Cranberry bliss – adding fresh cranberries to this recipes gives it that extra special touch, but frozen ones will work too!
  8. Cinnamon star cookies – a traditionally German cookie that I make every year.  The recipe was handed down to me from my Mom so it’s extra special to me.
  9. Sugar cut out cookies – and these ones actually hold their shape!
  10. Peanut butter graham cracker house – truly a labor of love, but aren’t they the cutest?!
  11. Chocolate caramel thumbprint cookie – my newest favorite cookie recipe that I hope you have a chance to try this year
  12. Vanilice – these are simply raspberry-filled sandwich cookies, with a fancy Serbian name that’s especially tricky to pronounce.  Either way, they are super yummy!

I can’t wait to see what you bake up this holiday season!

I forgot where I read it, but it was something abo I forgot where I read it, but it was something about 'normalizing normal/slightly ugly/normal kitchens' and that resonated with me. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When we moved into our house, my original thought was "I absolutely love the house, but maybe we'll redo the kitchen in 5 years to be all white" 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Why though? Because everyone else is doing that and it's 'cool'?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
After having lived in our house for 6+ months, now the most I have dreams of doing is maybe to redo the laminate countertops that are peeling in some places. Maybe. One day.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But this isn't some before/after post. It's just a post about saying your kitchen/home is fine the way it is, and if you don't have some pinterest board or desire to change your entire kitchen, that's a-ok.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Don't get me wrong, I still LOVE looking at beautiful kitchens and spaces, so I'll just continue adding pretty images to my weekly love-lists and leaving it there - for looking at pretty things vs. wishing to change my house or feeling bad about my kitchen.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Personally, I love my house. It feels homey and welcoming, and that's the vibe I'm going to keep going with.

Buffalo cauliflower nuggets? Do they taste weird? Buffalo cauliflower nuggets? Do they taste weird?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The answer is NO! This is one of the best vegetarian appetizers!  I was blown away by how insanely delicious these cauliflower nuggets are the first time I tried them, and they’ve been a favorite ever since 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You can make them in an air fryer to make them even healthier, but they’re great however you cook them!
