Twelve Days of Christmas Cookies: Recap

We have done a lot of baking here in the last 12 days, and it has been a ton of fun. Luckily, I have many willing little hands who like to roll and cut dough. They are especially fond of rolling things in sugar, sprinkling things with sugar & sprinkles, and coating the kitchen floor in sugar.

So now my freezer is full of cookies, and the fridge still has many bags of dough waiting to be baked for a continuous supply of fresh, warm, soft Christmas cookies. And my floor could use a serious mopping! But I am really good at putting that off for one more day.

After polling the house on their favorite cookies, we could not come to a consensus, so I will share everyone’s favorites:

Little J: Russian Tea Cakes (especially the red ones)
Little A: Sugar Cookies (definitely with frosting and sprinkles!)
Middle K: Swedish Peppar Kakar
Big A: Mint Oreos
Big J: Chocolate Caramel Thumbprints
Brian: Cherry Nut Mudslides (straight from the freezer: he says it makes them taste like a candy bar)
Kelly: Raspberry Almond Linzer Cookies

Let me know what your favorite is!
