I usually put allspice in instead of cloves just because it's what I have and it turns out great.</p> <p>@snarkybiochemist: mmm cherry chocolate. I have this giant jar of maraschino cherries I need to use up. Might make these this year to make a dent.</p> <p>@shabang: That sounds like an awesome combo </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/holiday-cookie-baking-ideas#post-2903837 Wed, 27 Nov 2019 10:05:53 +0000 shabang 2903837@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>These are crazy good: <a href="https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/197576/chocolate-chocolate-chip-bacon-cookies/" rel="nofollow">https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/197576/chocolate-chocolate-chip-bacon-cookies/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/holiday-cookie-baking-ideas#post-2903815 Tue, 26 Nov 2019 20:50:35 +0000 snarkybiochemist 2903815@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>These are all favorites that rotate through my holiday baking<br /> <a href="https://thecafesucrefarine.com/christmas-shortbread-cookies/" rel="nofollow">https://thecafesucrefarine.com/christmas-shortbread-cookies/</a><br /> <a href="https://thelemonbowl.com/hermit-bars-molasses-cookies/" rel="nofollow">https://thelemonbowl.com/hermit-bars-molasses-cookies/</a><br /> <a href="https://www.closetcooking.com/chocolate-and-maraschino-cherry/" rel="nofollow">https://www.closetcooking.com/chocolate-and-maraschino-cherry/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/holiday-cookie-baking-ideas#post-2903814 Tue, 26 Nov 2019 20:34:18 +0000 Foodnerd81 2903814@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lindseykaye: mmm those look so good!

I only make them at Christmas since I feel like getting my cookie press dirty once a year is sometimes enough :p plus it keeps them special. They’re so buttery and light compared to other treats I make. It’s a welcome addition!<br /> <a href="https://wholefully.com/clementine-clove-spritz-cookies/" rel="nofollow">https://wholefully.com/clementine-clove-spritz-cookies/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/holiday-cookie-baking-ideas#post-2903795 Tue, 26 Nov 2019 18:45:57 +0000 crazydoglady 2903795@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Christmas Crack!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/holiday-cookie-baking-ideas#post-2903793 Tue, 26 Nov 2019 18:32:13 +0000 erinbaderin 2903793@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For me it’s snickerdoodles and shortbread! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/holiday-cookie-baking-ideas#post-2903788 Tue, 26 Nov 2019 17:19:26 +0000 nwm 2903788@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My sister makes these every year and they are a lot of work but soooo tasty <a href="https://www.marthastewart.com/334691/chocolate-peppermint-cookies" rel="nofollow">https://www.marthastewart.com/334691/chocolate-peppermint-cookies</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/holiday-cookie-baking-ideas#post-2903782 Tue, 26 Nov 2019 16:57:00 +0000 MrsJBeeG 2903782@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I’m gearing up for Christmas baking. Admittedly it’s a tradition in my family to start baking Christmas cookies around thanksgiving and then give them to friends, neighbors and families. As a kid my mom and and I didn’t get along but we could call a truce in the kitchen to bake holiday cookies all weekend long until Christmas. My mom passed away years ago so I bake to remember her traditions too. </p> <p>I bake a lot of cookies every year. If I quit I think my extended family might disown me. :grin: </p> <p>Do you have any favorite cookie recipes? I’m always on the hunt to add to my to do list. </p> <p>I’ll share that I always make decorated sugar cookies, turtles, peanut butter blossoms, cranberry bliss bars, and m&amp;m cookies. This year I’m trying an egg nog cookie, an apricot and chocolate sandwich cookie, and peppermint meringues among others. </p>
