If you’re too busy to make Christmas cookies right now, please consider my approach. My favorite time to make holiday cookies for my family is the week between Christmas and New Year’s Day. Everything has calmed down a bit by then so everyone’s more relaxed.

It can also help with the after-Christmas letdown that some of us can experience. And unless you are totally inundated with sweet Christmas food gifts, you still have room for a cookie or two!
