Santa might be tired of Oreos. Hard to imagine, I know. There’s also a chance he needs a little break from gluten, dairy and eggs. Plus, the last thing you feel like doing on Christmas Eve night is baking cookies. We polled a few local cookie creators on what Santa really wants for his midnight snack. Kris Kringle excluded, all of these cookies make wonderful treats for any of your holiday events!
