Today Show: Outrageous Chocolate Holiday Cookies Recipe + Candy Canes

Today Show: Holiday Baking

Juliana Evans from Orlando, Florida, shared her Outrageous Chocolate Holiday Cookies as part of Today Show’s search for the best and most festive cookie recipes. Other finalists were Santa’s Hat Cookies and Snowflake Cookies. When it comes to cookies, I don’t think there are any losers.

“There’s a secret inside,” she promised. Al Roker called it “a cookie within a cookie.” After some debate among the judges, this cookie was named the winner, and Juliana made sure to collect a kiss from Al as part of her prize package.
