A Holiday Cookie Recipe for Each Day of Freeform's 25 Days of Christmas Movie Marathon

The month of December symbolizes a lot of things. Christmas is right around the corner, finals are creeping up on students, and, of course, it marks the beginning of the 25 Days of Christmas Movie Marathon. New movies and old classics are played every day to help us get into the Christmas spirit. If you feel like baking this finals season, here are some cookie recipes and movie pairings to keep you busy (or just help you procrastinate).
