How exciting…. with christmas around the corner I can’t help but feel a buzz in the air. I just love starting to plan all the christmas activities and treats. The smell of freshly baked cookies fill the air while soft christmas carols play in the background. Aaaa…. I can not think of anything better!!
This year I would like to share some wonderful cookie recipes with you. So bake up a storm and hide the christmas cookie tin, if you also would like to eat some😉
Sugar and spice shortbread cookies
This is by far the best recipe I have ever baked. This buttery cookie just melts in your mouth.
And by the way It really makes a great christmas gift.
This is an easy to make shortbread biscuit. The sweet taste of this biscuit mixed with just the perfect amount of cinnamon and mix spices makes a very special treat in our house.

Hertzoggies Cookies
Wow, now these cookies are super tasty. The only problem with them is that I never seem to make enough of them.
They are a truly South African treat. We do call them cookies, but looking at them they almost resemble a little pie.
I think this little cookie deserves a spot in every christmas cookie tin, https://www.livingdelish.com/hertzoggie-cookies/
Marry me cookies
Marry Me?
At christmas time?
Well these cookies are said to really make some special moments come true.
The special moments might not be a proposal but it is definitely the moments you share these cookies with your family or friends over a good cup of coffee….

Rooibos tea cookies
Have you ever tried Rooibos tea?
It’s a sweet, caffeine free tea and very popular here in South Africa. There are so many health benefits when consuming this tea. We also love using it in beauty products. It’s truly an amazing tea. https://www.livingdelish.com/rooibos-tea-wonders/
So what better way to enjoy this tea, than in a cookie. https://www.livingdelish.com/rooibos-tea-cookies/
Gingerbread house
What will the christmas cookie tin be without some gingerbread? Christmas time and Gingerbread houses goes hand to hand.
Making gingerbread houses looks daunting, but in actual fact you will find it fairly easy. And a bonus is that your kids will have hours of fun decorating their little houses. https://www.livingdelish.com/gingerbread-house/
Hope you get the change to bake some of these wonderful cookies.
Why not share them with friends and family or wrap them up as a homemade gift.
Enjoy!
