Crispy, sweet and delicious small treats. Is there no match better than peanut butter and chocolate?

Chocolate chip and almond biscotti are twice-baked Italian cookies built for dunking. Toasted almonds, semi-sweet chips, and a splash of whiskey give these crisp logs serious depth.

Mini nut tarts with a flaky cream cheese crust and a brown sugar pecan or walnut filling. Bite-sized pecan-tassie style cookies that bake in mini muffin tins for holiday cookie trays.

Oatmeal, dried cranberries, and chocolate chips are all my favorites. I always use low-fat yogurt to replace sour cream if possible. These cookies are so yummy.

Outstanding and perfect with a cup of coffee in the morning.

What an excellent cookie! Not too sweet with just the right amount of spices...

Christmas spice cookies: rolled-and-cut holiday cookies with ginger, cloves, nutmeg, allspice, and molasses. Soft or crunchy depending on bake time. Makes four dozen.

I had a few of these pastries at my friend's place, and they were delicious. I loved that there were just 3 ingredients for the cookies and they had the most flakey and delicate texture that I adored. They were not so sweet either, which was another plus!

This particular biscotti a bit of warm from the spices and adds depth to a good cup of tea in the fall. Add a bit of fruit and it makes a nice homemade gift for Christmas, good for breakfast with a coffee too.

A home-made Halloween treat that your kids will love. Chocolate sandwich cookies shaped using Halloween cookie cutters.

I make these every year for Christmas and everyone loves them!

Big, chewy whole wheat chocolate chip cookies with golden-brown edges and a soft center. Only 9 ingredients and 25 minutes from mixing bowl to cookie jar.

Date-pecan pinwheel cookies, delicious with a cup of coffee or tea.

Oatmeal cookies with dried cranberries and three warm spices: cinnamon, nutmeg, and cardamom. The chewy holiday-leaning take on the classic. Four dozen per batch.

Peanut butter cookies with melted chocolate swirled right through the dough and pressed with a classic fork crisscross. Chewy, nutty, and streaked with chocolate in every bite.

Studded with chunks of maraschino cherries, pecans, and shredded coconut, this cookie is a Christmas (or anytime) favorite. Freezes very well.
