I know that these are basic cookies in the sea of elaborate Christmas Cookies that are stealing the show right now. And I too, have a few more elaborate sweets recipes coming your way in the next few days. But I do still want to share these with you.

Chocolate, White Chocolate and Cranberry cookies (Vegan and Gluten-free) from heatherchristo.com

That’s because they are really delicious. And so incredibly fast and easy- which is sometimes what you need this time of year.

I also think that you could build on these cookies with some easy additions that would dress them up a little. Walnuts would be a great add-on. Or you could dip them in chocolate or white chocolate and sprinkle with crushed nuts or sprinkles. But don’t worry- even if you did nothing extra at all- these are lovely as they are and take about 20 minutes to make from start to finish.
