Hosting a New Year’s Eve party this year, or need something fun to bake with your kids?

How about making these festive “New Year” letter cookies this year. You can put them out on a dessert table as a fun New Year’s touch, eat them right away (probably what I would do), or hand them out as midnight favors. Just package them in clear cellophane bags with pretty ribbon and download a cute gift tag from one of n our free New Year’s printable collections!
