Woooooo pecan tarts!! My mouth is watering...! Hope your husband's surgery goes well & has a speedy recovery.
My favorite cookie would have to be a NM Favorite, Biscochitos. My Dad makes the best Biscochitos and they are so good you can't stop eating them.
I know it's Christmas when I smell them baking.
My favorite is an old fashioned frosted sugar cookie or sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar. I still bake about 6 doz. for my grandkids every Christmas. They love to come help add the frosting or sprinkles.
I have a different favorite everyday LOL! My all time favorite is iced sugar cookies though!
I love pecan fingers and the peanut butter cookies with the hershey kiss.
My favorite Christmas cookie is cut out sugar cookie. I always add a little almond to the dough and the frosting. They are so yummy. All shapes..bells, christmas trees, santas, stockings. So much fun to make and so great to eat. Thanks Michelle for this offer to all your blog readers.

Mine would have to be butter cookies sprinkled with powdered sugar - so easy to make too! Thanks!
I hope your husband's surgery goes well.
My favorite Christmas cookies are made by my grandmom. I don't know what they're called but they're like miniature pecan pies..oh so good!
Oh my, I have to pick just one? Hmmm, I guess it would have to be the peanut butter cookie with the hershey kiss on top...yummy!
Whoa...can't miss this one! Great candy...thanks for the chance!
I am boring...shortbread. A cup of butter for three dozen...how can you wrong?
Wow there are so many great ones. But I guess my favorite one is sugar cutout cookies. I don't make them as they are way too much work, however, everyone knows I love them and make them for me. How can you go wrong with that.
Hope your husbands surgery goes well and he has a speedy recovery. He must be totally sick of eating baby food.
Ohh what genrous candy.
I make chocolate chip biscuits for christmas but instead of milk choc chips, I add exta vanilla essence and use white chocolate chips and glace cherries.
Well, Christmas cookies in general are a hit with me :) Actually I think my favorite are cut out sugar cookies with frosting... Hoping we'll be able to make some when my kiddos are here for Christmas....
Dianne

There are very few cookies I don't just love!! My figure bears this out! I do love making sugar cookies with the boys every year, though!
I make some traditional scottish shortbread from a recipe my great grandmother had in her cookbook. They are melt in the mouth!
Love the candy - very generous!
I love ginger in my cookies, in fact I love ginger in ice cream, cake, puddings etc.
Oh wow that is some FABULOUS CANDY!!!
I just like ALLL the cookies ;) hahahahaa but most favorite is Speculaas a Dutch cookie or filled Speculaas with the almond stuffing :) YUMMMM but that is more a Sinterklaas kind of treat. Sinterklaas is like xmas for children on 5 dec. only with out the xmas tree ;)but with lots of presents. A dutch thing ;) But with xmas we always have lots of chocolates on the tables in all kinds of shapes and all have different flavours :) White bells, sprinkled balls, dark wreaths with little red dots. Hazelnut balls etc. That is more a thing here in my house ;)
hugss Ria
Congratulations with so many hits!
I love chocolate chip cookies!
greetings, Nanda
Lovely candy!
Here we don't really have special christmas cookies, but anything with chocolate will do :). Ah...I see a Dutch cookie in one of the other comments: speculaas is really nice!
My favourite cookie is anything with chocolate on! Kari
Ymmy candy!! Without a doubt, my favorite cookie is a Snickerdoodle! I may even bake some today now that they're on my mind!
Wow! What a great giveaway! My favorite cookie is those buttery Spritz cookies, especially the ones made by SOMEONE ELSE!
(I was thinking this and then read your post and saw that yours is the same!)
Thanks for your great blog, Michelle!
I like the pecan tassies, even though they are a bit labor intensive. So Yummy! Great Blog candy - Congrats on the blog hits!
What fun stamps. My family loves the russian tea cake cookies covered with powdered sugar.
I love shortbread cookies!! I only make them at Christmas...or I'd be eating them all the time. Thanks for the chance to win the candy...also something I love!! Shirley.
Funny you should speak of cookies and stamping in the same sentence!! Most of my cards have cookie crumbs as decorations!! When I married my husband, I learned to make Pfeffernouse(peppernuts) and they are made with lard (a warning of what your rear will look like!!) but they are fabulous with coffee. Great anise flavor! They are almost as good as your blog candy offering! Congrats on the milestone!
What a lovely combination for your blog candy dear.
My favorite cookies to make and eat (not quite sure of the name off the top of my head but it is more like a sugar cookie and as soon as you take them out of the oven you det a Hersheys Chocolate Kiss in the middle of them Oh hum hum hum. Congrats on your hits dear.
We don't really have that tradition of having Christmas cookies here in Sweden (except the gingerbread ones). But one thing that I can't be without, (although I have to sometimes because we don't always spend X-mas together), is my fiancée's brother in law's Chrismas candy. It's a secret recipy and we've been trying to duplicate it with...eh...different results. It's made of sugar, cream, syrup, butter and oatmeal. It's impossible to put down once you've started eating them!
/Katarina
my favorite cookie is Mexican hot chocolate....a twist to a chocolate chip cookie.
Congrats on the blog hits. My favorite cookie is a sugar cookie. It is pretty easy to add anything to make them different.
My favourite christmas cookie is called speculaas (think that's how you spell it). My MIL from Holland brings over a few packs when she comes over. Its cinamonn & almonds YUMMY. Ohh my mouth is watering thinking about it now. Michele x
Congrats on the hits! Here's to many more! My favorites are gingerbread and peanut butter topped with a hershey kiss. I've never heard of Spritz before.
My favourite christmas cookie is the scotch shortbread. If I don't make anything else I always make sure I make some of these.

My favorite cookies at Christmas are shortbread. My Dad was really fond of them and my Mom didn't have sucess making them so I always made a batch for my Dad at Christmas I either hand delivered them (we spent every second Christmas with my family 400 mile drive) or I sent them by Greyhound. I got the recipe was from my best friend when I was in my teens it was her Grandmas recipe she was Scottish. They are one item on the list every year. My Dad passed away 15 years ago but I think of him every year as I bake my shorbread. Thanks for the chance to win some great blog candy. Ann Lind

My hubbie would be any cookies with white choc..my kids would be any cookies with chocolate in and I'm an 'oatmeal raisin' type of gal... but in our house we're lucky if any of the dough hits the sheets - cos everyone eats the dough!!!
Hope all goes well with your husbands op.
Love your blog...x
Hi M&M! I love making Angel Cookies during the holiday season. I remember making them with my mom many years ago. They are the ones that you dip in water and then sprinkles and lay on a pan. Just before they are done baking in the oven, you put in a chocolate star. They are so much fun to make and I have carried on the tradition with my own daughters!
I LOVE YOUR BLOG! Happy Day!
My favorite cookie really isn't a cookie it is those holiday wreaths you make with marshmallows, cornflakes and green food coloring. I hope all goes well with your husband!
Thanks,
janna
My favorite would have to be iced sugar cookies with lots of sprinkles on top.
OH gosh I love your cards! And cookies! LOL Spritz would be my favorite. My mom used to make them with her "gun". It was so hard to not eat them right away, but they really are better the next day!
When I grew up and moved to Texas, I'd call her to "get the recipe" every year. She'd stay on the phone with me while I made them and it was almost like we were baking together.
Ahhh fond memories. Thank you for reminding me. I'm going to make them with my daughter this year.
Tee

My favorite Christmas cookie is Christmas shortbread. It is a layer of shortbread on the bottom with a layer of cherries, coconut and eagle brand on top. Sooooo delicious.
Karen
It may not be a true cookie, but 1of my most favorite Christmas sweets is Baklava. Although a bit tedious to make,itis definitely worth the effort. Sort of like some of our stamping projects, I think! LOL
Shortbread cookies make my tummy smile :)

My favorite Christmas cookie is my Grandma's Sugar Cookies! She use to make them for me all the time as a child and even times when I was sick. She passed away 2 years ago right after Christmas but one thing she made sure of shortly before she passed away...she made sure she gave me her special Sugar Cookie recipe!(insert tears here) I will always cherish her & the memories and keep making those cookies for my kids. So good! :)
Love your blog! Keep up the great work and best of luck to your hubby today as he goes for surgery! Will keep him in our thoughts & prayers!
Wendy
My favorite cookie is the rolled sugar cookie with no frosting. I roll them a little thinner so the crunch a little more.
