I know, I totally blow at this blogging thing but I never give up the hope that I will one day be a famous blogger ;)
Can you believe we are less than a month away from Christmas?! What the what!
As you may have guessed I love making Christmas cookies but I don't always have time because well...it's Christmas time and there is always sooooo much going on.
I assume many of you have the same problem so I've put together a few easy cookie ideas for you from around the web!
First up are these cute little reindeer cookies that start with a store bought cookie dough! You just can't get any easier. These come to you from Pillsbury and you can find the recipe here. These would be fabulous to take to your child's holiday school party!

You could change things up and use red M&Ms or Red Hots for the nose to make them little Rudolphs :)
Next, are these by Betty Crocker and I have to say they are one of my favorite cookies...they taste just like a brownie and are so simple to make. I would probably use way more powdered sugar than the recipe calls for but you do whatever floats your boat!

I know so many people who love red velvet. Red velvet cake, red velvet cookies and anything else they can think of. It's not one of my favorites but I do think they are pretty and I wanted to include them on my list. You can grab the recipe and instructions for these over at Duncan Hines.

Who doesn't love sprinkles?? I absolutely LOVE sprinkles of any kind, color or shape! And at Christmas time I love all things Red and Green...which brings me to these little cuties. You could go nuts with the sprinkles and possibilities are endless.

This next one is actually a recipe I'm going to try this year...I stumbled across this recipe from Chef In Training when I googled cake mix cookies. Using a cake mix makes it so quick and easy to whip a batch of cookies and you can always tweak them to make them more "homemade".
Candy Canes just scream Christmas to me and while my son loves real candy canes I do not. But I can totally get on board with these! Aren't they just the cutest?! You could make these even easier with the pre-made sugar cookie dough you can find in the store. I would of course love to add a little sanding sugar to these by brushing on a mix of water and almond extract and then sprinkling the sugar over them. Christmas cookies are always better with some bling! :)

I think these are some super easy, super cute cookies to take your next Holiday Party!
Cheers!
