This was originally published in "Southern Living" magazine; I have made a few alterations. I have used both Betty Crocker and Krusteaz sugar cookie mixes, both are good just remember that baking temps/times may vary. These cookies are sweet, spicy, and make me think of the winter holidays.

These lightly sweet, super seasonal cookies were my cookie of choice when recently asked to send some holiday cheer to an Air Force Squadron stationed in Iraq. They're sturdy enough to withstand the journey and tasty enough to make absolutely anyone smile!
