More Christmas cookies (Part II)

I have been meaning to post here my Christmas cookie recipes. But I've been so busy with the holidays that I haven't had time until now. I'm sorry that these are probably too late to help you this year. So I guess I'm just 365 days early for 2008. I'll start with the "cheating" cookies -- ones that are basically quasi home-made, but start out with a mix.
Once cooled, all these cookies freeze well.

White Chocolate-Pistachio
2 bags Better Crocker sugar cookie mix, mixed according to package directions
1/2 bag white chocolate chips
2 to 3 handfulls pistachio nuts, shells removed and roughly chopped
Combine sugar cookie dough, chips and nuts until well mixed. Roll into balls and bake according to package directions on sugar cookie mix.

Chocolate Surprise Cookies
2 bags Betty Crocker brownie mix, mixed according to package directions
5 to 8 mini or fun size candy bars, roughly chopped (I used leftovers that I had in the freezer from Halloween)
Preheat oven to 375. Add chopped candy bars to brownie mix. Drop by teaspoons onto cookie sheet lined with parchment. Bake until cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove to wire rack to cool.

Peanut Butter Thumb Prints
2 bags Betty Crocker peanut butter cookie mix, mixed according to package directions
Jam, Nutella, fluff, etc.
Roll cookie dough into balls and place on cookie sheet lined with parchment. Depress thumb into each ball. Fill each depression with jam (or nutella, or fluff, or whatever). Bake according to package directions.
