Which Holiday Cookie Are You? College Edition

One thing that every college student will say once they’ve first left home, is how much they miss home-cooked meals. I, myself, am no stranger to the University cafeteria, and so, I am the first to say that when I visit home, I go straight to the kitchen! Especially this year, since our semester has been conducted so differently, I cannot wait to dive into some real food. So, naturally, what’s the first thing I’m going to do when I go back to my hometown for holiday break? I’m going to make a MASSIVE batch of Christmas cookies!

The following quiz will decide exactly what holiday cookie you are this holiday season. Based on your responses as a college student, you will ultimately be given the cookie you are destined to be! (Jokes aside, I recommend every one of these treats, so go ahead and try out a recipe of your results!) So, without further ado, Which Holiday Cookie Are You? College Edition.
