Obviously I love peanut butter and chocolate.
I usually use regular Hershey's Kisses (dark) but really like those chocolate stars! Never noticed them in stores - will have to look.
Won't be buying from these guys: https://www.amazon.com/product-reviews/B00GXUHBP8/ref=acr_dp_hist_1?ie=UTF8&filterByStar=one_star&reviewerType=all_reviews#reviews-filter-bar2 -

These babies. They have many names, depending on where you’re from but I know them as Mexican Wedding Cookies, or Polverones. Light, lovely, pecan, buttery, powdered-sugary mess.
These are my favorites too! Mom used to make them. I'll have to get her recipe.
The ones in the picture, I made I run a small baking business through the Fall (breads, cookies, bars & cake pops) and these are always a big seller. Don’t ask me how I manage not to eat up what I bake. But these in particular are really hard to moderate, so most of the time I just don’t go there with these lol.3 -
Pie crust, cut with cookie cutters. Maybe sprinkled wihlth colored sugar, but probably not.0

It's not that I DON'T like spritz cookies...but I don't understand the hype over them, I admit.
I've had them on and off through the years but never made them until a couple years ago when I got a cookie press. I was so excited and then kinda like "that's it!?" because I just think they're really pretty and complicated sugar cookies, sorta.

@pancakerunner I can't believe you found peppermint cookies on chocolate crinkle cookies, exactly what I said would be so good! You're dangerous!1 -
That was supposed to say peppermint kisses, I was so excited I couldn't think straight!
Favorites are peanut butter kisses, persimmon, chocolate crinkle cookies, my Mom's chocolate cake cookies with white frosting, and shortbread. Mom always makes chocolate chip and I associate that with Christmas too. Oh, and my aunt's rainbow cookies, those are awesome!2 -

I'd love to do what you're doing in the fall! And there are so many outlets in which to sell them. I really would love to make/sell cookie pops. My dd bought some for a bridal shower last summer and they were soooo yummy. But I'd have no luck resisting them.1 -
I just thought of another cookie I bake at Christmas time called Scandinavian Almond Bars, sooo good!! And my mom always made a cookie called Jim Jams which are basically a soft molasses cookie sandwiched with rasp. jam. Another cookie I could eat till I drop.0

I do get it. For some reason resisting isn’t a problem, it’s in moderating that I run into trouble. I find it enjoyable, almost therapeutical. I’d post more pics of what I do but I don’t want to make temptation harder for anybody, it’s already everywhere right now.0 -

Oh please feel free to post pics if you'd like. I find myself looking at all the foods and loading my pinterest goodies board up with ideas but it doesn't mean I'm going to eat them all. Not that I wouldn't if a plate full was placed in front of me.1 -
Gingerbread cake with cream cheese frosting!1
