I’ve been meaning to start my holiday baking for weeks now, but still haven’t gotten around to it. (Those of you who’ve been gifting homemade goodies and organized cookie parties, I am hereby impressed!)

But this weekend, things are going to heat up in my kitchen. Below are the recipes I can’t wait to make!

Almond Butter & Jelly Thumbprint Cookies  from the Eating Made Easy kitchen

(I did manage to make these in November and they are crazy good, if I do say so myself)

Easy Turtle Bark from Chelsea’s Messy Apron

White Chocolate Dipped Snickerdoodles from Two Peas and Their Pod

(I’ve been making their Brown Butter Caramel Snickerdoodles for over a year and LOVE them but thought I’d try these this year.)

Flourless Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies (gluten-free) from Edible Perspective

(featured in People’s 31 Holiday Cookie Recipes list!)

Jingle Bell Bites from Seeded at the Table

I love that these are bite-sized and a perfect dessert for kids.

Cookies and Cream Peppermint Bark from Bran Appetit

(I have a serious thing for everything cookies & cream right now!)

Let me know if you have any other favorites I should add to my baking to-do list!
