Christmas in July Cookies and More

Midnight mass on Christmas Eve, wrapping gifts and frosting cookies, we make great memories in our family year after year.

Over the years we have lost lots of our loved ones but continue to instill the traditions with the new generations, hoping they fall into our footsteps of great memories someday in their futures.

Making those special moments with Mom and Dad, our Grandparents, and years of gatherings with cousins, Aunts, and Uncles have distant memories now but they molded our lives with the best holidays.

We have a basic cookie dough that makes over 85 cookies to try just by adding mix-ins perfect for Wedding, Christmas in July and of course the regular Christmas holiday called Variety Cookies (don't miss trying this basic recipe shown below in the first photo!).

Here are just a few of our favorite things we make to celebrate the season and foods we love.
