Chocolate and Pecan Christmas Cookies

Chocolate and Pecan Christmas Cookies
How cute are these cookies! They remind me so much of a white Christmas, which is my favourite Christmas ever. I grew up having white Christmas’s so when I’m home in Australia, it just doesn’t feel the same for me! I need the snow! Enjoy these easy, fuss-free cookies for the holidays and don’t forget to tag me on Insta with your creations (@monicayateshealth)
