Today I bring you one of my most favorite cookies ever… Red Velvet & White Cake Mix Cookies!  They always come out great and are so easy to make.  Plus, the recipe makes a ton…which means they are perfect to give away as gifts or take to cookie exchanges.

This time of year I am all about enjoying the little things.  I can’t wait to watch Christmas movies, drink hot chocolate, and go looking at Christmas lights.  In fact, we’ve already started some of that.  I have a ton of movies set to record on the DVR…hope there’s enough space!  I just love any and all Christmas movies.  My FAVORITE one is The Family Man with Nicholas Cage.  I could watch it over and over!!  What’s your favorite movie?

    I’m all over these cookies, Jaren! I love everything you mentioned about this time of year. It’s the little things that make it all so special. And I LOVE The Family Man! I actually watched that movie for the first time last year and just loved it so much. I don’t know why I hadn’t seen it before. My favorite Christmas movies are The Santa Clause (the first one!) and Love Actually!
