22 Christmas Cookie Favorites

What’s on your cookie lineup this year? Our usual suspects consist of lemon bars, candy cane cookies, magic cookie bars, thumbprints, frosted sugar cookies, etc… But I’m determined to make something new this year. While eggnog sugar cookies are a new exciting edition, I might steal one more from this amazing list of options and spice things up. On this list I’ve got some old, some new, that are all popular holiday favorites in our house and around the web. Which ones would you choose? (I’ve got my eye on the cranberry orange shortbread)
