There are so many types of traditional Christmas cookies and so little time, but it is fun to start as soon as possible and bake a variety. Cookies make terrific gifts and last-minute offerings when dropping by to say “Merry Christmas” to a friend. Most cookies freeze well so you can pull them out when you need them.
The Countdown to Christmas Challenge for today is to put on some of your favorite Christmas music, gather your ingredients, mixing bowls, spatulas and stirring spoons, and any children you might have in your home for some cookie-baking fun!
