Criss-Cross Cookies
You won't be able to get enough of these wonderfully buttery Criss-Cross Cookies, especially since they're made with such an impossibly easy cookie recipe. With just four simple ingredients that you most likely already have in your kitchen, you can make a batch of these tasty treats in less than an hour. These cookies are a Christmas dessert staple in many households because of their simple, sweet flavor and the fact that they're so easy to whip up. Simply combine all of the ingredients and drop balls of the dough onto a cookie sheet. Then, use the tines of a fork to flatten them and give them a fun look. Their criss-cross design gives them a pleasing appearance and helps keep the sprinkles on them from sliding off. These cookies are perfect for every occasion, from birthdays to Christmas, so you have no excuse not to make them.

For those who want to stick with the classic cookie theme, we recommend trying out a recipe for Peanut Butter Blossoms. These cookies have a similar structure to Criss-Cross Cookies, but with a tasty twist - a Hershey's Kiss pressed into the center. They are perfect for any occasion and are sure to be a hit with friends and family.
If you're looking to branch out and try something new, why not attempt to make a batch of Homemade Caramel Apples? These sweet treats are a fun and festive option, ideal for the fall season. They are a bit more time-consuming than cookies, but the end result is well worth the effort. Plus, they make for a great homemade gift for friends and loved ones.
Finally, for those who prefer a more decadent dessert, we suggest giving Chocolate Lava Cakes a try. These individual-sized cakes are rich, gooey, and perfect for a special occasion or date night. They may seem intimidating to make, but with a little practice, you'll have a restaurant-quality dessert right in your own kitchen.
We hope these dessert recommendations inspire you to get creative in the kitchen and continue to enjoy baking delicious treats for yourself and others. Happy baking!

Who doesn't love butter cookies, especially when they are as easy to make as these Criss-Cross Cookies. Four simple ingredients, and you don't even need your mixer to blend them. I love the versatility of this recipe as you can decorate them with different color or shaped sprinkles to suit the occasion. I'm making a batch with black and orange sprinkles this week for Halloween, but they are definitely on my Christmas cookie tray covered in red and green.
