One of my absolute favorite things to do during the holiday season is bake cookies. I’ve been baking cookies with my family since I was in high school. It’s become one of our Christmas family traditions. We would bake cookies the week of Christmas and make cute little cookie tins from Dollar Tree to give to our friends.
I became a mom in 2020 so I knew I wanted to carry this tradition into my own family. It’s the sweetest gesture to think of others and make something special for them. I’ve compiled a list of easy Christmas cookies to bake this holiday season. These recipes are so easy that your little one(s) can help out! I’ve gone ahead and linked all these delicious yummy Christmas cookies.
Easy Christmas Cookies To Make
Oh So Good Chocolate Cookies
These were so good!! I think between my husband and I, we ate them all in like 2 days. I’m not a fan of oatmeal raisin but my husband is and these are a perfect combination of chocolate chip and oatmeal raisin. You’ll love these chocolate chip and oat cookies.
Peanut Butter Reindeer Cookies
These are the cutest peanut butter cookies!! Towards the end of my pregnancy, I was craving peanut butter cookies and now they are my favorite. I love how easy these peanut butter reindeer cookies are easy for your children to make. With chocolate chips for eyes and red cinnamon candies for a nose, they are perfect for them to help.
Mexican Wedding Balls
I was very surprised how insanely good these were with only four ingredients. My husband jokes about how they remind him of Turkish Delights from Narnia. I can assure you they are not, but I would think Edmund would enjoy these yummy Mexican wedding balls.
Basic Rollout Sugar Cookies
What’s Christmas without basic rollout sugar cookies!? These are my most coveted easy Christmas cookies to make. Using all the fun cookie cutters is the best part! What makes this basic roll out cookie easy is other recipes call for you to chill the dough for at least an hour but nope not this one. I love that I was able to roll out the cookies in less than 10 minutes.
