By Stonehaven Dental & Orthodontics | December 22, 2017

The holiday season is upon us in Waco or Harker Heights! As we enter the season of giving, many of us are spending more time with friends and family. And nothing feels more classic as we get together as a great holiday cookie. So, why not spend an upcoming winter day trying out one of these exceptional options from this Holiday Cookie Recipes list, courtesy of BuzzFeed? They are fun, festive, and delicious treats that can also serve as a great gift for neighbors and coworkers, or simply a way to fill your own cookie jar with some holiday spirit.

Our dentist office in Waco or Harker Heights has picked out some of our favorites.

Gingerbread

Nothing says it’s the holiday season quite like gingerbread, and these cookies are guaranteed to please. The recipe is simple, making it an excellent choice for those who don’t consider themselves to be bakers. Plus, decorating options abound. Anything from piped icing to cinnamon candies to raisins complement the flavor, so you can choose the option that most appeals to you.

Vanilla Bean Sugar Cookies

Sugar cookies are also another classic holiday treat, and the decorating options are almost endless. Again, the recipe is simple, making it perfect for novice bakers. Plus, the instructions include an icing recipe, so you can take pride in creating everything but the sprinkles from scratch.

Red Velvet Cookies

If you are looking for one of the easiest recipes imaginable, then these Red Velvet cookies are a great choice. This recipe uses a box of red velvet cake mix and only three other ingredients, making the process of creating the batter nearly foolproof. And, after they bake, the cookies keep their festive red color. Just dust the finished cookies with powdered sugar, and you’re done.

The Best Chocolate Chip Cookies

When in doubt, chocolate chip cookies are always a crowd pleaser, and these are outstanding. The recipe is a little more complex than those listed above, as it requires browning the butter and resting the dough overnight (or up to three days), but the results make all of the extra work worthwhile. So, if you’re an experienced baker or are feeling a bit ambitious, these cookies should definitely be on your list.

Sammy, Connor, the front desk staff, Dental Hygenist and especially Dr. Town are amazing! It’s great to see the same faces everyone I get a cleaning! Sammy makes the experience comfortable and welcome. Connor may be quiet but he always does a great job! The dental hygienist always remembers me and my kids. Sorry I cant remember her name but she knows who I am and that’s what matters:) Thankful for this staff and the great care they give to my family!

I love it here. I have never seen a dental office give flowers to first timers. Everyone was so welcome if. In pain but you guys still made me smile. I told my daughter she need to come there. I love how you guys work with options of payment. Again thanks for making me smile in pain.

We’ve always had a good experience at Stonehaven. The women at the front desk are always cheerful and helpful. I love the hygienists, they always make my children and I feel comfortable and informed. I have pretty high dental anxiety and they’ve never tried to minimize my fears- but they listen to me, and help me feel as comfortable as possible. The dentists and orthodontists have been great! No issues at all. (I just wish my daughter was better at flossing, but we’re working on that!)
