By The Paula Deen Test Kitchen

Overwhelmed by cookie recipes already? Don’t sweat it! We’ve got thirty fantastic cookie recipes to help you sweeten things up this holiday season. Wrap them up in festive holiday packaging, and they make the perfect homemade gifts for friends and family. Or, make a few different kinds and host your own cookie swap party! You and your friends will love giving and receiving these holiday cookies made straight from the heart.

Cousin Johnnie’s Red Velvet Whoopie Pie

Make these sweet treats and they won’t be around for long! Who wouldn’t love red velvet sandwich cookies?

Top Secret Chocolate Cookies

It’s no secret why this recipe is one of Paula’s favorites. Place a small bit of parchment between each cookie and wrap with a piece of pretty ribbon for a thoughtful gift.

Three Chocolate Cookies

There’s not one, not two, but three kinds of chocolate in these delicious cookies.

Gingerbread Boys and Girls

Half the fun of making these gingerbread boys and girls is dressing them up. You’ll have a blast adding bow ties and dresses. Make ‘em your own!

Ginger Cookies

A sweet and snappy cookie that just might snap you back.

Chocolate Gooey Butter Cookies

Can you imagine bite sized pieces of gooey butter cake? Well no you don’t have to! We guarantee that these will be gone as soon as you pull them out of the oven.

Perfectly Pecan Praline Cookies

Crushed praline bits and drizzled with sweet white chocolate make these cookies finger-lickin’ good.

Oatmeal Scotchie Cookie

It’s a classic oatmeal cookie with a little bit of twist. Butterscotch morsels and chopped pecans make this cookie out-of-this-world good!

White Chocolate Cherry Chunkies

Paula normally makes these cookies for the holidays, but we’re sure that after you make them once you’ll be making them year-round.

White Chocolate Coconut Cookies

Bits of coconut, white chocolate chips and oats make this a cookie to satisfy just about any one’s sweet tooth.

Vanilla Sugar Cookie

The best thing about these cookies is that you cut them out into any fun shape. Cut them into turkeys and pumpkins for Thanksgiving, or make them into cute leaves of holly or holiday bells for Christmas.

Monster Cookies

It’s a monster cookie! This loaded cookie is really a mouthful; they’re loaded with candy-coated bits, peanut butter, and chocolate chips

Peppermint Pinwheels

You can easily make these festive cookies into precious cookie-pops. Insert a small stick, wrap with plastic, and tie a pretty bow around it to make the perfect stocking stuffer.

Paula’s Loaded Oatmeal Cookies

Oatmeal cookies just like grandma used to make! Create some memories of your own with this classic cookie.

Low Country Cookies

A sweet no-bake cookie for the non-baker. See for yourself why everyone falls in love with the Low Country!

Benne Seed Cookies

Paula’s loves the fun crunch that these cookies have!

Magical Peanut Butter Cookies

A delicious peanut butter cookie that can be made sugar-free.

Butterscotch Slice Cookies

The classic butterscotch taste will make these cookies an instant hit around the holidays.

Red Velvet Biscotti

Enjoy a tasty biscotti with a warm mug of hot chocolate, tea or coffee.

Grandma Paul’s Sand Tarts

Grandma always knows best, and these traditional Southern cookies are no exception!

Monogrammed Sugar Cookies

You can personalize these cookies with an iced monogram. They’re perfect for any occasion!

Hidden Kisses

Your loved ones will delight in the sweet surprise hidden in these cookies.

Hidden Mint Cookies

Another holiday cookie with a cool personality. Paula loves to leave these cookie out for Santa!

Red Velvet Sandwich Cookies

Paula’s Cousin Johnnie has the best recipe around. Try these sandwich cookies instead of a cupcake, and you may never look back.

Coconut Macaroons

These macaroons are going to keep you begging for more with their delicious toasted coconut flavor.

Savannah Bow Ties

A cookie that’s not scared to play dress up!

Mexican Wedding Cookies
