We all know that when it comes to the holidays one of the most loved sweet treats is a cookie. No matter the shape or form, the taste is what matters most. So I asked the Women of Midlife to share their favorite cookie recipes with me so I could share them all with you.
Whether you’re hosting a party or gathering, heading to a friend’s or a cookie exchange, these recipes will help you find your holiday spirit when it comes to baking and absolute yumminess. Have a look.
