Everybody will be leaving cookies for Santa on Christmas eve, but you want yours to be memorable. If you are not a baker, try using refrigerated cookie dough. They make really nice sugar cookies. You can decorate them if you wish, but I usually don't do anything fancy with them.I hate decorating sugar cookies. Those of you know that I have a lot of skills, but piping cute outfits on those cookies is not my thing. I make my cookies memorable by making simple cookies, such as brown sugar shortbread, that I can shape with my hands. Then I dip them in chocolate and nuts and they look (and taste) like they came from the fanciest bakery.
The cookies pictured here are brown sugar shortbread (in the back) and pecan tassies. Both are very easy to make and are sure to make Santa remember your house.
If all else fails, leave a nice cup of homemade hot chocolate. Santa will like that, too.
