Making these cut-out cookies has been a family tradition for as long as I can remember. When I was a kid my mom would make them for Easter; Lots of bunnies, chicks, and easter eggs. When I became a mom we continued the Easter tradition, but branched out and started making them for every holiday. My kids loved to decorate these cookies with anything and everything: Icing, sprinkles, candies, colored sugars, you name it - we used it.

It was always a great time making memories while we decorated (and ate) these wonderful soft and tender cut-outs. You're going to love these cookies - I promise! They are easy to roll and cut with you favorite cookie cutters. There is only a 15 minute long chill time and they hold their shape as they bake and keep a flat surface that's perfect for decorating. Bonus: they freeze perfectly!

These gluten-free oatmeal raisin cookies are just like my grandma used to make. They are soft, chewy, and loaded with delicious, sweet raisins. A mix of butter and cream cheese give these cookies a special flavor and texture that you and others will love!

There are just some classics that aren’t allowed to be messed with; oatmeal raisin cookies being one of them. They’re just so delicious and hard to resist in my opinion! The chewiness of the oatmeal, the warmth of the cinnamon, and the slight freshness from the raisins make up the perfect bite.

These Gluten-Free Walnut Buttercream Thumbprints are the most requested cookie in our house all year long, not just Christmas time. The cookie base is not too sweet, so the addition of the walnuts that toast while they bake and the smooth vanilla buttercream balance everything out so nicely. Not only do these elements give these cookies an outstanding flavor, but a wonderful texture as well.

There really is nothing more Christmas-y than toasted nuts and sweet cookies. These cookies give you the best of both worlds all in one bite. I have no doubt that people will be asking you for the recipe once they try one of these beautiful creations; I know because it happens every year to me! The second best part about these cookies is that they’re extremely simple to make and only require a few ingredients that you have around the house. Simple and tasty - there’s nothing better.

These Gluten-Free Hot Cocoa Cookie Cups are the best, simplest, and most delicious holiday treat you can make. Since the base is a simple chocolate chip cookie dough, it’s great to make with the kiddos! The filling only has 3 ingredients too, so it whips up in no time - perfect for those busy December days. If you have kids, they may want to leave a few out for ol’ Saint Nick on Christmas Eve! 🎅🏼☕️

These cookie cups are great to bring to any holiday gathering because they are so dang simple!!! All of your friends will be swooning over these little babies because of how adorable and tasty they are. There’s really nothing better than a hot cocoa on a cold winter day, so these are the perfect addition to your holiday dessert table. So, put this recipe on your “To Do” list this holiday season!

These cookies are a Christmas staple in our house. We always have to make a double or even a triple batch just so we don’t run out by the time the holiday finally comes around! Now, these cookies may look super rich, but they’re surprisingly light and feel like a brownie in your mouth. The chocolate chips scattered in the dough give a light crunch to contract against the smooth icing on top. The chocolate sprinkles are optional, but they add another nice texture.

Some advice: I would definitely make a double batch like we do because these cookies disappear very quickly. First, you’ll try one, and sneak another, and then decide that since you’ve already had two, why not have a third? These Gluten-Free Chocolate Hermits are so addictive, you’ll never get enough of them!

Shortbread cookies have been a favorite in my family for many years. We are also big fans of lemon. So, why not combine the two and create a delicious, buttery, melt-in-your-mouth shortbread cookie and add a bright, creamy, lemon filling. A perfect combo! These cookies are a little more effort than other cookies, but trust me, they are worth the effort. The cookie dough is only 7 ingredients and mixes up super quick and easy. They're so perfect for the summer, or any season really! Do yourself a favor and give these sweet treats a try. I bet they'll become one of your favorite desserts!
