MOM'S CHRISTMAS COOKIES



Mom's Christmas Cookies image

These are traditional cookies Mom used to make for Christmas. They are a bit of work, but they were so popular that Mom used to hide them, which just meant that we would find them and eat them before she realized that we were into them.

Categories     Christmas Cookies

Time 8h50m

Yield 36

Number Of Ingredients 11

¾ cup unsalted butter, softened
½ cup tightly packed brown sugar
3 tablespoons white sugar, divided, or as needed
1 large egg yolk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
½ cup unsalted butter, melted
2 ½ cups powdered sugar
3 tablespoons milk, or more as needed
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons chocolate sprinkles, or as needed

Steps:

  • Mix butter, brown sugar, and 1 tablespoon white sugar with an electric mixer until creamy. Add egg yolk and vanilla and mix until well combined. Blend in flour gradually. Cover and chill in the refrigerator, 8 hours to overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place remaining 2 tablespoon white sugar on a plate.
  • Remove dough from the refrigerator. Shape into small balls and place on ungreased cookie sheets. Dip a glass into the sugar and press on each ball to flatten.
  • Bake in the preheated oven, switching racks halfway through, until edges are golden, 7 to 9 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet for 1 minute before removing to a wire rack to cool, 8 to 10 minutes more.
  • While the cookies are cooling, mix butter and powdered sugar until blended. Mix in milk and vanilla.
  • Frost cooled cookies with frosting. Press sprinkles into the frosting while still soft.

Tips:

  • Use a stand mixer or hand mixer to cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. This will help create a chewy cookie.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help prevent the cookies from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies at 375°F for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are just beginning to brown. Overbaking will make the cookies dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. This will help prevent the cookies from breaking.
  • Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

This recipe for Christmas M&M Cookies is a delicious and festive treat that is perfect for the holiday season. The cookies are chewy, soft, and loaded with chocolate and M&Ms. They are also very easy to make, so they are perfect for bakers of all skill levels.
