Christmas means cookies. Lots of cookies. When the season is upon us, it's time to start thinking about what cookies to bake for our family, fill up our cookie tins for gifts, serve at our potlucks, and munch on as we start wrapping yet another present. Are you going for a festive cookie to decorate with icing and candies or a more subdued cookie that evokes the season with flavors like cinnamon, peppermint, ginger, and—of course—chocolate? Well, sometimes, our schedules dictate what treats we're baking, and we just need an easy cookie recipe.
We don't always have the time to make batches of complicated masterpieces. Occasionally, we want a delicious, simple cookie that, if we're being honest, tastes just as good but with half the hassle. That's where these delicious yet easy holiday cookie recipes come in—they give you Christmas cheer with little effort. (And we are all for it). Check out these easy Christmas cookies you'll be making all season long.

Snickerdoodles highlight the spice of the season: cinnamon. You won't be able to resist a taste after smelling these cinnamon-sugar cookies baking.
