Four Holiday Cookie Recipes

Welcome to Homemaking Tips Tuesdays where contributing writers share helpful homemaking tips so you can feel more successful caring for your home and family.

{This week, post by: Jessica}

Each year I look forward to having the opportunity to do some holiday baking. I have included 4 holiday cookie recipes here with printable recipe cards.

There is just something about giving into the decadence of the holidays and passing on my love for baking to my kids. It is a life skill, and baking cookies is a great way to make homemade Christmas gifts for neighbors and friends.

With so many holiday cookie recipes available, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. Below are four tried and true holiday cookie recipes that you can make with with your kids.

After you print out the recipes, be sure to enter to win a FREE 4oz jar of Sauvignon Blanc Wine Jelly from Five O’Clock Jelly. Enter by answering the question at the end of this post.
