No matter what you celebrate in December, it seems like there\u2019s a cookie for it. And not that you ever need an excuse for fresh, warm cookies out of the oven, but Bake Cookies Day is also conveniently nestled smack in the middle of December, so it\u2019s the perfect month to fire up the oven and get baking with, and for, the people you love.<\/p>\n

Baking is a wonderful way to spend quality time with family and friends, and little ones will never forget those magical moments in the kitchen during the holiday season. Make it even more worthwhile by baking large batches so everyone involved can take home some of the fruits of their labour. Most cookie recipes can be easily doubled or tripled, depending on how many you hope to make.<\/p>\n

Classics like big, chewy chocolate chip cookies<\/a>, the simple and comforting oatmeal cookie<\/a>\u00a0 or cinnamon-spiced snickerdoodles<\/a> are all wonderful options for a family baking day. But if you want to tailor your cookies to the holidays you\u2019ll be celebrating, check out these festive recipe ideas:<\/p>\n
