100 Christmas Cookies and Sweets Recipes
Whatever you are looking for be it Traditional Christmas Cookies Recipes, Old Fashioned Christmas Cookies recipe, No-Bake Christmas Cookies recipes, Easy Christmas Cookies (ok, most of my recipes are pretty easy), Kid-centric Christmas Cookies, Christmas Cake recipes, Christmas Pie recipes, and more, this list has it!! I have also included nice, rich recipes that can be used for any occasion – including a holiday party, Christmas party, New Year’s Eve party and ummm well, parties and gatherings in general.
Do you like to make homemade cookies during the holidays? Do you gift cookies to people for the holidays? What about leaving a plate out for good old St. Nick? If you need a new Christmas cookie recipe or Christmas sweet recipe, this list has a wide range of dessert and party options: Cake recipes, pudding recipes, candy recipes, fudge recipes (mmmm fudge!), cookie bars (I love easy to make bars!), tarts, and more. Something traditional like a Kris Kringle Cookies, or perhaps newer cookie ideas such as a 3-D Christmas Tree? There’s everything from cherry based cookies to cranberry and pumpkin recipes (yes, pumpkin is also a Christmas go-to for many people!) to no-bake cookies to gluten-free holiday cookies! This list has it all!
If you need a frosting, I highly recommend this Classic Vanilla Buttercream Frosting Recipe which you can make any color (using food coloring or food gel) or any flavor. the base recipe is vanilla, but you could make it peppermint, anise, rum, root beer – truly any flavor you like.
You can also make your own colored sugar easily with this How To Make Colored Sugar tutorial. It is so simple, my mother had me making it at 5 (not kidding!).
And, now on to the Christmas Cookies and Christmas Sweets recipes! (Note: over the years I have added to this list! There are now well over 100 Christmas Cookies and Christmas Sweets recipes on this list!)

Rebecca Payne says
I am so sorry to hear about your fathers passing but, he is in Glory now. You and your family will be in my prayers.
Linda says
I am so very sorry about your father.
Dixie says
Dear Ann,
Sad indeed. Our prayers and heart-full love goes out to you and your family. You spoke so sweetly and lovingly of your father. A man who is remembered as loving, generous and kind must surely be resting in the arms of his Savior.
Take care and let not your heart be troubled.
Dixie
