Christmas Cookies

Here are four tasty cookie recipes that are perfect for the holiday season.  One of the recipes is a no-bake cookie and two of the recipes only have three ingredients.  It doesn’t get better than that!  Warning: if you don’t like chocolate, these cookies are not for you.

Andes Candies Cookies

One of my favorites for a long time, Andes Candies Cookies are chocolate cookies perfected when an Andes Mint is melted on top.

Peanut Butter Cup Cookies

Using a mini muffin tin, these cookies are surprisingly easy as long as you have the peanut butter cups unwrapped and ready to be pushed in as soon as the cookies come out of the oven. Peanut Butter Cup Cookies are a classic at Christmastime.

Haystack Cookies

Another super easy recipe and you don’t even have to bake these cookies!  For Haystack Cookies, I think using butterscotch chips makes them extra delicious but you can use any flavor chips you want.  Plus, you can add additional ingredients such as mini-marshmallows, nuts, coconut, etc., to customize.

M&M Pretzel Ring Bites

Tiny, bite-sized chocolate pretzel rings with an M&M on top can be a bit addictive.  You can really customize this recipe by using different flavored Hershey’s Kisses but I highly recommend finding pretzel rings.  The ring shape looks better and holds the chocolate in place better.  I have had M&M Pretzel Ring Bites with other types of pretzels and it just isn’t the same.

I hope you love these Christmas cookies as much as I do. Let me know your favorite type of Christmas cookie in the comment section below!
