in seventh heaven
This is one of my favorite Christmas cookie recipe, and I honestly can’t think of a single year in my life when we didn’t have these on our cookie platter. The nice thing is they’re super easy to make, and the result is gooey, delicious bite-sized cookies. The recipe only requires–you guessed it–7 ingredients! And the process is simply laying one ingredient over the other and baking until solid. These cookies are a crowd favorite, and they make a lovely holiday gift idea if you cut them up and place them in a pretty cookie tin. Spread seven layers of joy to all your family and friends this holiday season!
