Cookie cutters with Christmas designs, floury fingers, lots of icing and edible glitter decorations. Cookie baking during Advent is a must in most households. Turning up your favorite Christmas music and drinking a hot mulled wine or punch makes the pre-Christmas atmosphere perfect.

Sure, you can buy cookies, but we think there’s nothing like something homemade. You have a delicious smell in the house, you know what’s in it, and you value the cookies more when you enjoy them because the moment of baking together in a merry circle is linked to it. For us, things like that are automatically part of the sustainability theme.

Cookie baking – creative or classic

But how is it with you, do you look for new creative recipes for cookie baking every year, or do you stick to tried and tested classics? For us, no cookie baking event goes by without the recipe from our age-old “Golden Baking Book.” Since it’s not a secret recipe, I’m happy to share it with you and hope you enjoy baking it! 😉

There are no limits to your creativity when decorating the treats. We usually stir lemon juice with powdered sugar for this or dip the cookies in chocolate, so that on it can hold a lot (!) glitter. 😉
