Christmas Cookies - Cream Cheese Walnut


100% homemade goodness

These are a buttery, rich cookie - yumminess!

Great packaged for gifts

I've been a busy little elf, baking, cooking, and decorating. I made these cookies well ahead of time so I not only have some for Christmas, I also packaged a few as small hostess gifts that I can take when we are invited over to join neighbors and friends for Christmas Cheer!

I might have to make another batch because someone has been sneaking into the freezer and these have been disappearing . . .

Happy baking and decorating, everyone!
