A Sweet Holiday Treat: Christmas Ooey Gooey Butter Cookies
If there’s one cookie that captures the spirit of Christmas in every soft, buttery bite, it’s the Christmas Ooey Gooey Butter Cookie. With their melt-in-your-mouth texture, festive colors, and rich flavor, these cookies are a holiday favorite that deserve a spot on every cookie tray.
What Makes Them “Ooey Gooey”?
Inspired by the classic gooey butter cake, these cookies are soft, chewy, and oh-so-indulgent. Made with cream cheese and a cake mix base, they have a luscious, almost brownie-like center with a slightly crisp edge. The “ooey gooey” magic comes from the perfect blend of butter, cream cheese, and powdered sugar—creating a rich dough that bakes into pillowy-soft cookies.
A Festive Favorite
What makes these cookies stand out during the holidays? It’s all in the presentation. Rolled in powdered sugar before baking, they get that signature crackled top, like a dusting of fresh snow. Add a few drops of red or green food coloring, festive sprinkles, or even peppermint extract, and you’ve got a merry little cookie that looks as good as it tastes.
Why Everyone Loves Them
