Today I wanted to share with all of you my favorite Christmas Cookie Recipe for Chocolate Chip Danish Cookies! You may know these as Spanish wedding Cookies, Danish Tea Cookies or Snow Ball cookies as I already mentioned!

I have stuck with calling them “Chocolate Chip Danish Cookies” just because that is simply what they remind me of! Whatever you choose to call them, they are a sure delight anytime of the year with their crunchy, melt in your mouth center and sweet sugary coating!
I have tried these many different ways but this has been my favorite way that I make these Cookies! I am always certain to get a cookie full of flavor and a crunchy yet melt in your mouth center!
