  1. Hi Kelly, I make the Christmas tree shortbread cookies every year and they are a huge hit. Thanks for the great recipe!

  2. Excellent Christmas cookie round-up, Kelly! Love the variety! I have several go-to’s each year, but I always add one or two new ones. Great options here, but it definitely would be difficult to choose only one or two! :)
