Ever since I can remember, I have been baking cookies for Christmas. It was a tradition that was started with my Grandmother that I now do with my daughter. Red Velvet cookies are my favorite and my red velvet cookie recipe is so easy. We have always made a ton of cookies and every year as I get older, I find more and more people to gift them to and occasions to bring them to. You can bring them to just about any holiday party or event as the perfect hostess gift. You can also gift them to just about anyone and they are always delighted.

My cookie gifting list now includes:

  • the UPS and Fedex delivery drivers 
  • the mail carrier 
  • my husband’s co-workers 
  • our neighbors 
  • my photographer 
  • and family and friends

As mentioned, my favorite cookie to share has always been red velvet cookies. They’re a festive yet non traditional Christmas cookie and that’s what I love about them. Not to mention they taste delicious. Who doesn’t love red velvet? The best part is they are really easy to make.

I usually make several batches and package them in TakeAlongs® holiday containers. They come in various sizes in red, green, and gold. They’re inexpensive and festive so they’re the perfect way to gift holiday cookies and treats. You can purchase them at Walmart. I usually get the really big gold ones for parties and cookie swaps and the smaller ones in red, and green for gifts.
