🎅 Holiday Flavors

Holiday Grinch Cookies

If you are a fan of the Grinch movie, you know the bright green with a red twist, screams The Grinch! Super fun and a kid-friendly cookie that will brighten up the table!

We like to serve up the Strawberry Chocolate Christmas Trees with these.

Hot Chocolate Cookies

I am a sucker for hot chocolate. Here is a fun cookie that gives you warm flavors of a hot cup of hot chocolate with marshmallows and graham crackers!

Try my Pink Hot Chocolate or Cookies and Cream Hot Chocolate to serve with these.

Snow Ball Cookies

Snowball cookies are a must-make around the holiday season. A coconut and white chocolate chip cookie that literally melts in your mouth.

Oreo Peppermint Cookies

Peppermint chips and crushed Oreo cookies are the two ingredients that transform these cookies. I love a crushed Oreo cookie.

Gingerbread Chip Cookies

If you want a hint of gingerbread cookies, this recipe is so simple. Gingerbread chunks, cinnamon, and chocolate chips.

Caramel Apple Cookies

Caramel baking chips, sliced apples, and cinnamon will transform the cookie dough to a caramel apple flavor. The fresh apple slices are such a rich and delicious mix-in fruit.

Common Questions

What consistency is cake mix cookie batter?

Cake mix cookie batter is going to be thick. Once you add in your mix-in ingredients it will have more thickness of course depending on the ingredients used.

Do you have to refrigerate the cookie dough before baking?

This cookie recipe does not require refrigerating the dough before baking. Which makes it even easier to whip up and toss on the cookie sheet and bake.

How to freeze leftover cookies?

Allow your cookies to fully cool. Then place them in a freezer bag or airtight container. Store in the freezer for 3-4 months. When you want some cookies, thaw on the counter for about 30 minutes to an hour. Or warm them in the microwave for a fresh out of the oven warm cookie.

What size cake mix to use for cake mix cookies?

Yes, you can use this mix in idea on cake mix cookies! We transformed a basic cake mix into Cranberry Bliss Cake Mix Cookies just by using add-in’s. A 15.25 ounce box is the normal size of a cake mix. You will find some cake mixes are 18 ounces, but in general reach for a 15.25 for any cake mix cookie. Unless it states otherwise. If you choose to make cake mix variety, always add 1-2 tsp of vanilla to make them taste more homemade.

What if I don’t have a couple of the items in the recipe?

Check out the Baking and Ingredients Swap Printable to find out which items can be swapped out for things you already have in your pantry. Out of eggs? There are options to still bake today by using the Egg Substitution Printable.
