Let’s face it–we don’t all have the time or even the desire to be super cute and festive bakers. Luckily, these simple holiday cookies require minimal baking skills. Even though they’re super easy, your kids will love them. Personally, I think they’re even worthy of a bake sale or class party!
how to make holiday cookies for any occasion
I talk a lot about simplifying, but now more than ever I realize that I need to prioritize things and simplify what I can. However, that doesn’t mean that I don’t still love to make sweet treats or celebrate every holiday I can.

So whether you’re an avid baker who is short on time, or somehow manage to set off the smoke detectors by just walking into your kitchen, I’ve got a simple tutorial for you. This “recipe” will ensure that every holiday can be fully celebrated with baked goods. After all, sweet treats make every day better, right? As we all know–calories and carbs don’t count on holidays.
materials/ingredients needed:
- cookies of choice (I bought mine, but you could bake some from scratch or use frozen dough, whatever you have time for!)
- melting chocolate in color or flavor of choice
- coordinating sprinkles
To make these delicious and festive cookies simply melt some chocolate according to package directions, dip half your cookie in, and then dip in a bowl of sprinkles! I even used mint chips for the Christmas ones and they turned out so yummy. This is also a fun way to get your kids involved in the kitchen that isn’t too complicated for the little ones. I promise that they will have a blast helping you with the sprinkles!
