Christmas cookies are a staple of the season. Whether you’re bringing them to a party, gifting them, or simply enjoying them, cookies are at no shortage this time of year! As your premier catering service in Andover, MA, the team at Celebrations Catering wanted to take a moment to honor some of the most popular cookies of the season. Enjoy!
Warm Gooey Chocolate Chip Cookies
The number one cookie of the holiday cookie tradition is the chocolate chip cookie. Although there are several variations of recipes floating around, we suggest compiling the primary ingredients and making them your own. One tip, use pure vanilla extract when possible, we promise your taste buds will thank you!
Peanut Butter Thumbprints
One of our fondest childhood memories during the holidays that revolves around cookies, is stealing the Hershey Kiss from Grandma’s peanut butter thumbprint cookies. Boy, did that get her going! These peanut butter cookies are rolled in sugar and garnished with a kiss once they’re taking from the oven. Simple yet delicious.
Sugar Cookies
Another must-have during the holiday season is sugar cookies. Whether they’re left plain, sprinkled with cinnamon, or cut into festive shapes and frosted, sugar cookies are one of the best cookies for letting your creativity flow. Super simple or super fancy, the choice is yours.
Gingerbread Cookies
The warm and spicy flavor from ginger, cinnamon, clove, and molasses is an incomparable experience during the cookie taste test. Don’t say we didn’t warn you though; it’s easy to go overboard with these little pieces of Heaven.
White Chocolate Cranberry Orange Cookies
We’re not sure what’s better, the zing of orange rind or the warm melty chocolate? Perhaps it’s the sweet burst of cranberries as you bite into this cookie that has you coming back for more. Either way, this one is a keeper.
Coconut Drops
These festive little cookies are similar to a thumbprint cookie. With a combination of shredded coconut, cream cheese, almond extract, and orange juice, you’ll create little bowls filled with raspberry preserves. Make sure to make extra because these will be gone before you can say “Merry Christmas Charlie Brown.”
