I don’t know about you, but I am already preparing my Christmas baking list. When we first got married, it became a tradition to bake plates of cookies for family, friends and neighbors. Since then, I am always looking for new cookie recipes to add to my baking list. That’s why I am excited to be a part of this year’s “Cookie Week”, hosted by Maryann from Domestically Speaking.

My mother-in-law introduced me to the Family Tradition Christmas Surprise Cookie Recipe.

Every year it is one of the most requested cookies from both family and friends.

I am excited to share it with you today,along with several of my talented blogging friends and their amazing cookie recipes. You will find their recipes at the end of this post.Continue Reading

I came right home and made my own.
