Christmas cookies are an ingrained holiday tradition. Popping the lid off a tin of cookies and seeing the assortment inside ranks right up there with making our wish lists.
The best cookie boxes — for giving or snacking — include a combination of cookie types: nutty, sugary, crunchy, chewy, sparkly, boozy and filled.
We collected five recipes ideal for sharing with options suitable for specific dietary restrictions — sorry, none of these are remotely low sugar — including a gluten-free cookie, an egg free and a couple of nut-free cookies.
If you're planning to bake a lot of cookies (or cakes, for that matter) this Christmas, knowing these numbers could save you a trip to the store.
