Christmas cookies
Festive baked sweets
Christmas cookies are sweet baked treats made during the holiday season, often decorated with colored icing, sprinkles, or sugar.
They're typically shaped like stars, trees, gingerbread figures, or snowflakes, and baking them is a common family tradition: We spent the afternoon making Christmas cookies with the kids.
The phrase also covers any cookies served at holiday gatherings.
