Baking has always been my passion, and as a child, I'd bake dozens and dozens of cookies to give to family and friends, and the most requested cookies were always my gumdrop cookies.<\/p>\n

The original version of this recipe came from my neighbor. When she first handed me a gumdrop cookie, I resisted, but once I finally gave in and took a bite, I couldn't get enough.<\/p>\n

Each soft sugar cookie is loaded with sweet little gems of fruity goodness.<\/p>\n

This recipe has evolved a bit over the years and is still my most requested cookie at the holidays or any time of year.<\/p>\n

I personally enjoy the lemon, orange, grape, lime, and cherry flavors that the brightly colored gumdrops bring to these cookies, but they can be made with just red and green and even white gumdrops for Christmas if you prefer.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

You can make gumdrop cookies for so many different occasions. They are so festive for a birthday party and make great birthday gifts. My mom and brothers hope to see a package of them wrapped up each year on their birthdays.<\/span><\/div>\n

For Valentine's Day, you can fill these gumdrop cookies with red (and white or pink) gumdrops.<\/p>\n

Orange and purple gumdrops make fun Halloween cookies and yellow, purple, pink, and orange gumdrops look festive for Easter. There are so many possibilities.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
