Kissing Cousin Cookies

Peanut Blossom Cookies

Peanut butter & chocolate! When the chocolate is a “kiss,” this tiny cookie becomes a message of love, too.

Trail Mix Cookies

Trail Mix Cookies are my favorite comfort cookie. They’re crispy on the edges, chewy on the inside and full of nuts, seeds and dried cranberries.

Matzo Crack

Matzo Crack has a crispy, flaky Matzo layer, topped with buttery toffee, melted chocolate, toasted pecans, and a sprinkling of sea salt to bring it all together.

Soft Molasses Cookies

Chewy...spicy...molasses perfection. Soft Molasses Cookies are the antidote to the blahs. So good, you can eat them all by themselves.

Sandies (from Minnesota?)

Mom would make Sandies every Christmas and adding them to my Christmas cookie plate brings back memories of happy Christmases past.

Hanukkah Gelt Cookies

Gingerbread isn’t just for Christmas anymore. And these dainty tea cookies are the perfect example of gingerbread’s amazing year-round versatility.

Lemon-Glazed Persimmon Bars

Because persimmons mature late in the fall and are available until late in the winter, they are the perfect fruit for a winter spice cookie.

Apple Pie Cookies

These beautiful and delicious “pie-cookie” make it easy to share pie with everyone. The flaky crust is full of spices and the filling is heaven on earth.

Frosted Double Chocolate Cookies

Rich chocolate frosting tops these fudgy chocolate cookies, which are full of chocolate chips. If you’re looking for a decadent chocolate-y treat, this is it.

Soft Amish Sugar Cookie

These melt-in-your-mouth, buttery Soft Amish Sugar Cookies are quick and easy to make and so pretty. Eaten plain or dressed in sprinkles, butter and sugar never came together in a more satisfying bite.

Almond-Raspberry Sandwich Cookies

Almond flour? Tart raspberry filling? Crunchy and soft cookie? These are on my top-ten list of most favorite sandwich cookies.
