Love butterscotch, love pecans, and love the combination of these two together. That's why these squares have been my go-to treats. How can anyone say no to these delicious squares?! I do sometimes use half chocolate chips.

Super moist, buttery and packed with pumpkin flavor. The dried cranberries are delicious additions. Great treat at Thanksgiving or Christmas.

Finska Pinnar are classic Finnish butter cookies rolled in pearl sugar - crisp, buttery shortbread fingers made in 30 minutes that yield 4 dozen cookies.

Light and fluffy Christmas snowball cookies. Lighter and lower fat than most Christmas cookies and faster to make (no need to refrigerate overnight).

Classic peanut butter blossom cookies with a chocolate kiss pressed into the center of each warm cookie. The holiday cookie tray essential.

Delicious! I find that it's easier to form the cookies if you make the filling first, refrigerate it, roll it into the 1" balls, then refrigerate again. I flatten the chocolate cookie part into disks and envelope the filling balls inside, rolling again. Very easy to make.

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

These yummy treats are made with whole wheat flour, oats, applesauce, vegetable oil and a tiny amount of butter, which adds lots of heart-healthy ingredients to the cookies without losing any bit of deliciousness. Especially when peanut butter and chocolate chips are involved, make sure to bake enough, because they disappear quicky.
