Holiday Tea Cakes

The following recipe and photography was provided by Christina Musgrave of Tasting with Tina.

These easy Holiday Tea Cakes are my new favorite winter cookie, one because they’re delicious, and two because they call for only a handful of ingredients. Plus, they’re ready in about 30 minutes! If you’re looking to get your kids involved with this year’s holiday baking, this is the recipe to make!

I personally love the walnuts in this recipe, but they can be easily swapped for pecans or any other nut you prefer. If you have nut allergy concerns, pretzels are a great replacement. Happy baking!
