Cake Mix Christmas Sugar Cookies Recipe

There’s just something so fun about doing a cookie swap, sharing your baking with friends and family – and sometimes strangers too – that I get super excited about it each Christmas.

Aren’t they just adorable? This Cake Mix Christmas Sugar Cookies Recipe results in light and fluffy cookies, but they are still crispy on the edges, just like one of those thicker old fashioned sugar cookies. I LOVE chewy and crispy cookies, don’t you? I

think that is why I have never been a fan of store bought cookies, to be perfectly honest. Sure, they may TASTE good, but I like to bite down into a cookie and feel it give – not crumble. 

All you have to do is put some in a pretty Ziploc bag or in a decorative tin and you’re all set for your cookie swap, to give as gifts to coworkers or even as a nice hostess gift for that last minute holiday party that you were invited to!

Roll the cookie dough into 2″ balls, placing about 2-3 inches apart on a cookie sheet.

Using the bottom of a glass, gently press the cookie dough balls down to about 1/4 in thickness.

Bake 8-10 minutes, being careful not to overbake. If you don’t have a kitchen timer, I highly recommend one!

Allow the cookies to cool on cooling racks, or simply set aside for about 10 mins. Once cooled, generously frost and sprinkle to your heart’s content!
