We love making Christmas cookies every year and trying out new recipes to leave for Santa, along with a glass of milk and some reindeer food! Having tasty cookies to leave for Santa is important for us. We want to make sure that he gets a tasty treat when he stops at our house!
These 12 Christmas cookies are some of our favorites and some new ones we have made recently. All of them are ones we love and are perfect for putting on a plate for Santa on Christmas Eve! On Christmas Eve we like to bake lots of cookies! Then at night our Christmas Tradition is to get on our Christmas Pjs, set our cookies for Santa and then go for a drive around to look at all the Christmas lights. It is soo much fun, then the kiddos come home and go to bed! If you are looking for a special Santa Christmas cookie plate, this one is awesome it also has a matching mug for Santa’s milk!
There are so many different cookie recipes that are not only super tasty but fun and festive too! We have a lot of cookies that we like to make each year and sometimes we find ourselves making Christmas Cookies all month long just because they are so much fun to make. Of course they are so much fun to eat too! You are going to love our list of 12 Days of Christmas Cookies!
