My Question for you is: What are your favorite Christmas Cookies?
I have a few favorites. The Ultimate Cashew Cookie is a new favorite in this house. I also like pecan fingers, chocolate chip, and peanut butter kiss cookies.
Here is my recipe for the Ultimate Cashew Cookie. I apologize for no pictures for this one.
