star cookies

Pointed baked sweets

Star cookies are cookies cut into star shapes, typically using a star-shaped cookie cutter before baking.

The term appears most often around holidays, especially Christmas, when decorative cookie shapes are traditional: We made star cookies and snowmen for the cookie exchange.

Any cookie dough firm enough to hold its shape can become star cookies.
