Have you finished your Christmas shopping yet?
Have you even started your Christmas shopping yet?
I wish I could help you out with a round-up of great gift ideas, but putting together gift guides is hard — I get too distracted by cookie recipes and shiny things and fall down a simultaneous Pinterest/Etsy rabbit hole. That being said, I did put together a little Amazon store with some of my favorite kitchen tools, ingredients, cookbooks, and great reads. Everything I have included is something that I own and really do use/love, so you can be sure that the foodie and/or bookworm in your life will appreciate them, too.
So, since we’ve established that I’m really much better with cookies than I am with suggesting what you should buy for your mom/coworker/best friend…may I present you with a round-up of some great cookies? You no doubt still have about 9,234 parties to attend between now and January 1, and any of these cookies would be a hit at your next shindig. So hit up these awesome blogs, grab your butter and sugar, and start baking!

Great round up!! I just love holiday cookies! 🙂 Those raspberry pistachio thumbprints look delish!
Stephie says
Those seriously made me drool a little!
cookingactress says
woot! I made the list!
Stephie says
Girl. I seriously had THE WORST time trying to pick which cookie from your site to feature. You only have about 99 million cookie recipes to choose from! Instead of the post I did, I could have put one sentence: Go to Kayle’s site and go to town. 😉
cookingactress says
baha I do have a lot of cookie recipes 😛
laurasmess says
What a fantastic list Stephie! Yum, I want to try all of them! (P.S just spotted that you have a recipe for Afajores already, I just created my own and I would’ve used yours as reference if I’d known about it! They look delicious) x
Julia says
Oh dear God, this is an amazing roundup! I need to start baking! Thanks for including me in on the action 🙂
Julie @ Table for Two says

All the cookies are looking so tempting. I just want one from each.

I think that’s totally reasonable.
