    This No Bake Reindeer Cookies Recipe for Christmas is just so much fun and easy to make!

    I'd recommend you make these a day ahead or the morning before serving in the evening. The cookies are like thin crisps. They soften up when you put frosting between them and let them set to absorb the moisture in the frosting.

    These Reindeer Cookies for Christmas are not just adorable, but they are also very simple to create, and hello - these cookies are no bake cookies!

    I know how hectic the holidays can be for most families who celebrate...one less thing in the oven, the better. Right? 

    These No Bake Christmas Cookies are really great for those with kids who want to give the little ones a little something fun to do while the parents are wrapping gifts, or struggling with all of the craziness that comes along with the holiday season. 

    Oh, wait a second, did I mention....these reindeer cookies are also no bake! Ha ha! Yeah, I am a bit excited about that. I find the cookies in the grocery store with the ice cream toppings, not the cookie aisle.
