Hopefully, I'll want to bake this holiday season. I never know if the mood is going to hit me or not. If it does, I'm going to try these.

8. I love these!

My favorites! I don't like really sweet sweets, which is why I love most nut-based cookies. They tend to just have a hint of sweetness. The Europeans have a lot of great almond, walnut, hazelnut, etc. based cookies, especially around Christmas. I'm not even a big sweet eater, but I love cookies like this!
