When my kids were younger they had a hard time accepting that I didn’t bake cookies, but eventually they figured out that they could make cookies themselves! For all the bakers at your house (whatever their ages), here are some easy, kid-friendly cookie recipes. Have a safe and happy holiday season!
Betty Crocker: Christmas Cookies to Make with Kids
“From red and green chocolate chip cookies to sugar cookie cut-outs, these are the easy Christmas cookies we look forward to making every year.” There are only ten recipes here, but I like this collection because you can see the cookies on this one page, without having to scroll through a slideshow. Visit to check out Easy Reindeer Cookies, Christmas Candy Cane Cookies, and the Snow-Capped Christmas Tree Cookies.
Kids Activities Blog: 75 Cookie Recipes We Adore
This is a giant collection of 75 cookie recipes. How many years will it take you to try them all? “One of our family’s Christmas traditions is making a big platter of cookies and handing out small plates filled with goodies to our neighbors. The kids LOVE it and even though it is several weeks away they are already planning on the types of cookies they want to make.”
Mrs. Claus’ Kitchen
Mrs. Claus’ twenty-five recipes are divided into three categories: Elf Bedtime Snacks, Santa’s Favorites, and Reindeer Cravings. All her recipes are easy and full of kid-appeal. For example, did you know reindeer love wormy apples? You can make them by spreading peanut butter on apple slices, and topping with yummy, gummy worms. Most of these recipes don’t even require baking! When you’re ready to leave the kitchen, there’s lots to explore in the rest of Santa’s Village.
