Day 10: Favorite Christmas Cookie

Today’s guest is my friend Alexandra Hoover. She is a wife, mother of three incredible kiddos, daughter, friend, bible teacher, and Proverbs 31 devotion writer. And now, here she is with a fun question of the day!

I grew up eating delicious homemade Venezuelan desserts for Christmas. My absolute favorite was Tres Leches cake (translation: three milks cake). This is a sponge cake —in some recipes, a butter cake —soaked in three kinds of milk: evaporated, condensed, and heavy cream. Sometimes cinnamon is also in the recipe.

As I grew up, I was also introduced to a few American recipes that I loved as well. They became a sweet obsession. One is soft sugar cookies and the other is gingerbread cookies. I love them fresh out of the oven. I just can’t go without them at Christmas time!

And so, for our question today, tell us what your favorite Christmas cookie is in the comment thread and you will be entered to win my giveaway.

Thanks Alex! For day nine, Alexandra is giving away Ann Voskamp’s  Family advent book Unwrapping the Greatest Gift, and her new guide Come and See. Be sure to tell us your favorite Christmas cookie. (In case you’re wondering, mine is church windows!)

  1. Growing up my favorite cookie was my Grandma’s buttermilk cookies with frosting. Sadly none of us can make them like grandma used to but I still remember how amazing they were! My girls love their grandma’s frosted cut out cookies!

  2. My favorite cookies are the ones my Czech MIL makes. She makes many varieties, but I love the ones that have jam in the middle. I don’t know the name other than delicious

  3. My favorite Christmas cookie is a sour cream sugar cookie. These are soft and tender cookies that are great for cutting out shapes and is a favorite dunk-in-my-coffee cookie.

  4. I grew up with my mom and gramie making all kinds of Christmas cookies. I love them all! Swedish Crisps, Chocolate Pinwheels, Cream Cheese Pillows, Christmas Candlelight Cookie, Spritz, Tea Time Tassies, Thumbprint, Cream Cheese Pillows…so many fond memories
