This is the time of year when Christmas fanatics everywhere gather around to devise new ways to infuse more holiday spirit into their lives. Getting ready for the holiday can be hectic, but these Christmas cookies will help make the holiday a little bit sweeter.

Christmas would not be Christmas without the holiday cookies. They bring joy to the taste buds. Beyond this, baking provides an opportunity for friends and families to come together.

The most fun and interactive cookies to make are classic sugar cookies.

Junior Jennifer Taylor asserted, “My favorite type of cookie is the sugar cookie with the nice frosting.”

Cookie cutters function to make the sugar cookies even more festive. If there are no cookie cutters near, one can take aluminum foil, fold it twice, form it into a shape that fits the Christmas cheer and staple the end. To make sure the cookies look decorative, use a powdered sugar icing with coloring of your choice.
