Healthy Christmas Cookie Recipe Roundup

I woke up this morning and realized it's already Christmas Cookie Season again!

I better get a move on! Especially since I'm less than a month from my due date with Baby Girl #2!! I have my usual favorites from childhood, but I just can't bring myself to make those refined-sugar/flour cookies for myself, friends, and family this year. 

So I set out to find some "healthified" Christmas cookies that are festive, taste great, and that I would feel good about eating and sharing.

This is a long list, and I don't plan on making them all, but I thought I'd share my roundup of the recipes I'm considering trying out. I will let you know what I make and how they turned out!
