50+ Christmas Cookie Recipes for Every Baker

Val Curtis

It’s that time of year when I start perusing Pinterest to find amazing Christmas Cookie Recipes and I rush to the store to buy all of the supplies. This is followed with a rapid awareness that I fail at sugar cookies – every – single – time –  and that the $20 I spent on almond flour to make macarons was a TOTAL waste of money. I am baking challenged and for the most part, I have embraced that part of me.

The trick is that I follow people like the AMAZING John Kanell from Preppy Kitchen (OMG his Instagram feed!) and that  I am surrounded by incredibly talented bakers like my friend, Suzanne from Flour Arrangements whose prowess with flour and fondant have lured me into thinking ANYTHING is possible in the kitchen if you just try.

My dear, sweet friends, that is simply not true. I can crank out snickerdoodles and chocolate chip cookies galore, but that is the limit to my baking abilities. Savory I can do, sweet, well, I leave that to the talented people around me. So to honor all of your this holiday season, we have gathered Christmas Cookie recipes for both ends of the spectrum, from simple to extremely talented bakers.
