Thanksgiving cookies may be underrated when it comes to desserts thanks to those tasty pies that we are so use to seeing after eating all of that turkey. However, Thanksgiving cookies are popular any time leading up to Thanksgiving including that special day. The best cookies for Thanksgiving are usually the ones that feature a Thanksgiving motif, such as a turkey. Even better, since the holiday may be all about family gatherings with kids, cookies that kids can help decorate may be the best!
