Every week for the next 17 weeks I will post a make ahead recipe for Christmas…yes I am weird. So, look for that! Today we start out with an explosion of ideas…to go along with the rest of the home and dining channel 50 list…Any of these would be great in the Christmas Cookie exchange…in fact..all of them would be! And you have time to get to all of them if you start now. 
Adding this note: I spoke to the geniuses that figure out the webpages and asked about a printer friendly pages. They assure me they are working on it. In the meanwhile you can always cut and copy to an email to yourself.

They are very good! I still love this list. Thanks for visiting.
These sound great! And I, too, will be bookmarking this site for next Christmas. I noticed you started 17 weeks before Christmas. I was wondering if you have information on how to freeze the cookies/cookie dough? Thanks!
wrap up in wax paper and put in the freezer
Have you frozen all of the cookies on the list successfully?
Jenny, no. I have not tried to freeze all of them.
That’s what the list says.

Wow, some of these are pretty unique sounding cookies. Can’t wait to try some recipes! Nice site!
I so have to show this to the family!I love this site!!!!!
Help me!
Oh Marye, I love your cookies and everything on the list and I want to make some so badly! The problem is that I live in Denmark and usually use the EU metric system. But I have absolutely no idea how to convert US to EU metric so I could really use some help! (Does “C” stand for “Cup”? What the heck is that anyway?) I have tried looking up some converting sites online, but they all come up with different results! Does anyone know a sure precise site where I can covert the measurements? I would really love to get some help!
C is a cup which is 236 mls.
3/4 C is 187 mls.
1/2 C is 118 mls.
1/4 C is 59 mls.
T is Tablespoon which is 15 mls.
t is Teaspoon which is 5 mls.
All measurements are volume measurements.
3 teaspoons = 1 Tablespoon
2 Cups = 1 Pint, 2 Pints = 1 Quart, 4 Quarts = 1 Gallon.
As for temperature, C = 5/9 (F-32), So for 350 F, C=5/9(350-32), C=0.55(318), C=176.6.
325 F = 162.7 C
350 F = 176.6 C
375 F = 190.5 C
400 F = 204.4 C
425 F = 218.3 C
450 F = 232.2 C
Good Luck!
Hi there…welcome to the “Canadian” way of baking. I was brought up using the standard “imperial measure”…yet can from time to time, work with Metric as well. I do prefer imperial when baking.
Here is the usual short-terms when referring to Imperial Baking.
C – cup
tbsp or tblsp – tablespoon
tsp – teaspoon
Hope this helps!
Good luck and enjoy…
Brooke
thank you brooke!
AC- I don’t know how to change the measurements accurately.

Marye, I have made several of these recipes since you originally posted – what a public service!
Your list and this cookbook: http://www.oneforthetable.com/oftt/books/christmas-cookies.html (my discovery of this year) are really all I need. Thanks SO much!
WOW! Thanks for all the awesome cookie recipes. Enjoyed reading everything. Thanks!!

It would help if the links to the cookie recipes actually led to the recipe. All I get is a blog that I don’t want to read.
Well Greg, gee, if you took the time to read the blog you would eventually get to the recipe on the post. I bet you have two microwaves, don’t you?
Thanks for such an interesting list of cookie recipes! I’m always on the lookout for wonderful cookie recipes, both classic and contemporary.
The link no longer work! To bad, some of these sounded great just by the names!
Shelly the ones I checked are working. I will try to go through all of them and sift out the nonworking links but of the ones I tried …they all worked
Oh my gosh! I was reading some of the names of the recipes to my 4-year-old cousin and she begged me to make one, and I tried the latte cheesecake bars because my mother LOVES lattes and cappuchinos, and Mom and Mia fell in love with them! Thanks so much!
Glad it worked for you Kayleen! Thanks for visiting
