Holiday Baking Made Easy with Krusteaz Cookie Mixes

I don’t know about you but this year the holiday’s really snuck up on me! We finally got our tree this weekend and put out the rest of the decorations. Keep in mind I am usually the first one on the block come day after Thanksgiving (I get too excited) so I am a little behind for me. But I’m finally getting into the swing of things (good thing since Christmas will be here before we know it!).

Part of our family’s traditions include baking cookies for family, neighbor’s and teachers. We tend to bake a couple rounds of holiday cookies and our first batches were made with Krusteaz cookie mixes. As you can see, she is very excited to get baking (and tasting) these delicious cookies. We opted to try their Shortbread Cookie Mix and Triple Chocolate Chunk Cookies and I must say both are super delicious.

When you are short on time but want to give out tasty cookies I would definitely recommend Krusteaz mixes. I have to refrain myself at this very moment while writing this post from eating the whole tray of chocolate chip cookies… those are my favorite.

I have yet to meet a chocolate chip cookie I didn’t like! I’m just saying!

We had a blast making our cookies and plan to give them out to her teachers before the holiday break. Here are some ideas for how to package the treats.

Have your children write on the outside of the box to personalize it!

Wrap the cookies in some wax paper, close the take-out box and wrap a pretty bow around it. Add a name tag, tie a jingle bell on it and you are done! Cute and pretty that anyone would be happy to receive.
