Thanks all for sharing your recipes! Now I could use some that will travel well too- last year I sent out packages of cookies and some ended up demolished and a little melted. I need to figure out a better solution this year...
When my husband was in the navy his mom would send him cookies packed in popcorn.

My cookie recipes are simple: Pillsbury or Nestle pre-made cookie dough
Sometimes I even let the kids use the cookie cutters and cut the sugar cookies into shapes
Sorry, I couldn't resist! But I'm really not a baker and this way, at least I know they are edible!!
I do make my own no-bake cookies though(and LOTS of them as they are the favorite around here!!
The chocolate no bake cookies made with oats??? Mmmmmmm those are favorite around here too. You need my address, don't you???

I try to make all kinds of cookies, candy, choc covered this and choc covered that, around the holidays, but Magic Cookie Bars is one of my favs to make (and eat), and I always get requests for more. LOL

Magic Cookie Bars

1 cup chopped nuts
..DIRECTIONS
1.Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (325 degrees for glass dish). In 13x9-inch baking pan, melt margarine in oven. Sprinkle crumbs over butter; pour EAGLE BRAND® evenly over crumbs. Layer evenly with remaining ingredients; press down firmly.
2.Bake 25 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool. Chill if desired. Cut into bars. Store loosely covered at room temperature.

does anyone know how to make those I would say cookies that are in a ball and you put powderd sugar over them after you bake them and sometimes people put rum in them?
Rum balls?? I've never made them, but here's a recipe from cooks.com
RUM OR BOURBON BALLS
1 c. powdered sugar
1/3 c. rum or bourbon
1/4 c. light corn syrup
2 1/2 c. crushed vanilla wafers (food processor makes this step easy!)
1 c. chopped pecans
Stir together powdered sugar, alcohol and corn syrup. Then add the crushed wafers and chopped nuts. Mix until evenly moistened and pinch a walnut sized piece and roll it firmly between the palms of your hands, repeat until all balls have been made. Then sift 1/2 cup powdered sugar and 1 tablespoon cocoa powder onto a plate, roll the balls in the powder until evenly coated. Store in an airtight tin with doilies or wax paper between layers. Recommend candy sized Christmas cups for serving.
Makes about 20 balls.

Caramel Filled Chocolate Cookies
2 1/2 cups flour
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup sugar
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 cup margarine or butter, softened
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 eggs
1 cup chopped pecans
48 Rolos
1 tablespoon sugar
4 oz. vanilla-flavored candy coating, if desired (I almost never do this step)
DIRECTIONS
In medium bowl, combine flour, cocoa and baking soda; mix well.
In large bowl, combine 1 cup sugar, brown sugar and margarine; beat until light and fluffy. Add vanilla and eggs; beat well. Add flour mixture; blend well. Stir in 1/2 cup of the pecans. If necessary, cover with plastic wrap; refrigerate 30 minutes for easier handling.
Heat oven to 375°F. For each cookie, with floured hands, shape about 1 tablespoon dough around 1 caramel candy, covering completely.
In small bowl, combine remaining 1/2 cup pecans and 1 tablespoon sugar. Press one side of each ball into pecan mixture. Place, nut side up, 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets.
Bake at 375°F. for 7 to 10 minutes or until set and slightly cracked. Cool 2 minutes; remove from cookie sheets. Cool on wire rack for 15 minutes or until completely cooled.
Melt candy coating in small saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth. Drizzle over cookies
Totally making these for the office!!!

And do you let your children help. We have a tradition that on Christmas Eve or the day befor we bake all day. The kids have a wonderful time and it gives me special time with them. Then when family and friends come over we have snacks. We bake cheese straws, cresents, peanut butter balls, sausage balls, chocolate covered pretzels,and the favorite pigs in the blankets. Anyone else do this? What do you bake?
I usually make most of them alone, but the kids and I make a huge batch of cutouts. They all apron up and take hours decorating this cookie for this grandma, and this one for that....they love it and the pics are always adorable!
