50+ Christmas Cookie Recipes for Santa

Almost everyone has the tradition of leaving cookies out for Santa on Christmas Eve! For my family, making the cookies on Christmas Eve is almost as much of a tradition as leaving them out that night! My kids always look forward to making them (along with our Christmas morning Cinnamon Rolls)! This year I thought it would be fun to make a bunch of different cookies for our Christmas Eve festivities and then we can leave out a plate full of a variety of cookies! I am going to have each member of our family pick out a cookie, we’ll enjoy them as our dessert on Christmas Eve and then put together a beautiful plate for Santa to enjoy that night during his rounds! These 40+ Christmas Cookies for Santa are all recipes that have fantastic reviews and I think will be worth making!
