Cute Christmas Dessert Recipes

A lot of these ideas and recipes are very easy. Quite a few lend themselves to edible crafts which are always fun to do. I have divided them up into four sections, Cookies, Cupcakes & Brownies, Other Sweets and Crafts. 

These treats would be great for any kind of holiday party. Our daughter is born in December so my theme for years was snowmen treats, the polar bears or cupcakes would be gorgeous too. I did make the Vanilla Candy Cane Cupcakes for her party one year.

COOKIES

Sweet treats you love to eat. Some of the recipes are simple others more difficult but all of them are adorable. From candy canes to sugar cookies all of these recipes will be your best Christmas desserts. 

Add one of more of these to your cookie platters to have some fun. For sure people will be commenting on them and enjoying them. 

And I have to mention the Mini Gingerbread House Mug Topper Cookies, they are one of my faves for sure. I could see the smiles appearing as someone enjoys hanging these off a cup of cocoa, tea or coffee.

What’s the holidays without some chocolate, fudge, reindeers, candy canes, peanut butter balls and more!! The Cookie Cutter Christmas Fudge would make a great teacher gift.

    There are so many cute ideas. Some of my favorites were the polar bears, the string of lights on the circular cookies and the reindeer. Any of these would be great for a cookie exchange.

    Talk about 30 cute Christmas desserts! These are spectacular, and I am not sure I can pick just a couple favorites. I really love the different types of reindeer ideas you have shared. The snowflakes are so pretty, and I also love the snowmen. I could go on and on. I hope to make just a few of these for this holiday season.
