The Christmas season is my absolute favorite time of year. I love holiday decorations, Christmas music, and the excuse to do lots and lots of baking — especially when the recipe is an easy one, like these holiday chocolate chip cookies.
While stocking up on baking essentials (you know, like candy canes and butter — lots and lots of butter), I found these Nestle Toll House Holiday Morsels and knew I had to make some holiday chocolate chip cookies.
These cookies are super-easy to make but still look fun and festive. They would be a great treat to serve at a holiday party or bring to a potluck!

Preheat oven to 400-degrees F. In the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, cream together butter and sugar. Add in eggs and vanilla and mix well.
In a separate bowl, mix together flour, baking soda and salt. Gradually add to the wet mixture, stirring until dough is consistent. Stir in Holiday Morsels.
Drop by the spoonful onto a lined baking sheet and bake at 400-degrees F for 8-12 minutes, until bottom edges begin to turn golden brown. Cool for a few minutes, then transfer to wire baking racks to cool completely.

Holiday Chocolate Chip Cookies could possibly bring a sense of warmth and nostalgia, filled with the aroma of fresh-baked dough and melting chocolate that hints at family gatherings and cozy winter evenings. There’s a chance they carry more than just taste—perhaps stories, traditions, and shared laughter wrapped in each bite. They might even spark curiosity about the calories mcdonalds cookies have, especially for those balancing indulgence with mindful choices. Sometimes, the sweetest holiday memories are baked, not planned, and they have a way of making the season feel just a little more magical.
