| I made chocolate peanut butter bars last year and they were a big hit [http://allrecipes.com//Recipe/chocolate-peanut-butter-bars-iv/Detail.aspx] but am looking for something else this year. Inspire me! |

| Last year I made peanut butter cookies with a hershey kiss in the middle. I know, so pedestrian. But I'm not a good baker. This year, I saw these cute sandwich cookies - chocolate drop on the outside, vanilla frosting then rolled in chopped up peppermint candies. I don't think I can eek out the time for them though. But, I'm hoping someone has some inspiration for something I can make in an evening. |

I made these
http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/Trios-240930 came out really good and looked pretty, if you want to save assembly time make them individual cookies. A girl at my exchange made the cranberry amd pistachio mexican wedding cookies also from the epicurious 25 days of cookies, they were really good as well |

| Almond Spritz cookies from Cooks Illustrated. I can fit two dozen on a cookie sheet so it's pretty quick. Not the most exciting contribution, but with a 8 week old and a 20 month old that's about all I can manage these days. |

| I just made 10 different kinds of cookies as part of a psychotic annual tradition I started about 8 years ago. Hits this year (based on consumer feedback): pistachio lime cookies (I think Rachel Ray has one but I got mine from BH&G), coconut candy bars (Coconut candy bars: http://www.bhg.com/recipe/cookies/coconut-candy-bars/) and peppermint bark that I bagged individually. |

| Gingerbread. I roll them out extra-thick so they are nice and soft. I make little trees and put a bit of green buttercream frosting on them like garland. |

| I made chocolate chip - from the Cook's Illustrated recipe. Gone first! I say go classic (like the pb w/ kiss) or go new & different (those exotic cranberry types the earlier posters mentioned). Someone at our cookies exchange made these chocolate brownies w/ peppermint frosting drizzles - wow. That says holiday to me. |
