Christmas Cookie Jar is chock-full of scrumptious recipes with all the flavors of the season...Chocolate Mint Stars, Raspberry Shortbread Thumbprints, Frosted Ginger Creams and Cranberry Crumb Bars. You'll find old-fashioned favorites like Pecan Icebox Cookies, Grandma's Butter Fingers and Pastel Cream Wafers...even Oh-So-Easy Cut-Outs and 1-2-3 Cookies that bake up in a jiffy.

When Christmas Eve arrives, we'll be setting out a plate of Rudolph's Carrot Cookies for Santa...how about you?
