Decorated Christmas cookies are festive treats typically made using sugar cookie or gingerbread dough, originating from European holiday traditions. The dough is commonly prepared with ingredients like flour, sugar, butter, eggs, and vanilla or spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg, or ginger. Once baked, the cookies are decorated with colorful icing, sprinkles, or candies, showcasing intricate holiday designs. While they add cheer to celebrations, their nutritional profile includes high sugar and fat content, making them best enjoyed in moderation. Some health-conscious alternatives can include whole-grain flour, lower-sugar icings, or natural decorations like nuts and dried fruit. These cookies are not only a holiday indulgence but also a creative and communal baking activity that brings families and friends together.
