Christmas Cokies Ingredients
- Butter (1 cup)
- Sugar (1 cup)
- Flour (2 cups)
- Sprinkles (1/2 cup)
- Icing (1/4 cup)
How to make this recipe
- Beat the butter and sugar in a mixing dish until the mixture is frothy and light in color. Add the flour gradually, stirring constantly to keep the texture smooth. Spread the sprinkles equally throughout the dough by gently folding them in. Cut the dough into little circles, then arrange them on a baking sheet. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown, at 350°F in a preheated oven.
- As the cookies cool, make the icing by mixing it with a little bit of festive spirit. Drizzle the cookies liberally with the holiday icing after they have cooled. Let the frosting harden to produce an incredibly sweet and aesthetically pleasing confection.
Christmas Cokies Recipe Variations
- Chocolatey Wonderland Extravaganza. Mix in a half-cup of chocolate chips to satisfy your sweet craving. A delightful combination of rich cocoa and buttery ecstasy, the melting chocolate transforms the Christmas Cookies into pockets of gooey decadence.
- Cranberry Bliss Elegance. Use a quarter-cup of dried cranberries to give a touch of refinement to your Christmas cookies.
- Peppermint Perfection Delight. Add crushed candy canes to the icing to embrace the holiday spirit with a peppermint touch. This pleasant addition tastes as good as it looks, giving your Christmas cookies a refreshing taste that lingers and leaves a delightful aftertaste that makes you think of candy canes and winter marvels.
What to Pair with Christmas Cokies
- Orange Cranberry Chutney. Serve a zesty orange cranberry chutney alongside your Christmas cookies. Fresh oranges add a burst of freshness that harmonizes with the sweetness of the biscuits, perfectly balancing the tartness of the cranberries.
- Savory Rosemary Parmesan Shortbread. Use this savory shortbread to counterbalance the sweetness of Christmas cookies. A savory balance between the rich umami of parmesan and the flowery scent of rosemary creates a lovely contrast with the sweet delights.
- Warm Spiced Apple Compote. A dab of warm spiced apple compote will make your Christmas cookies experience even better. The acidic and sweet apples, enhanced by nutmeg and cinnamon, provide a cozy contrast that elevates the overall festive flavor character.
