These Christmas Sugar Cookie Dippers are so fun and super easy. Cute little holiday plunge cookie cutters and easy buttercream icing make everyone happy!
These are such a fun holiday treat and amazingly simple. They look and taste like you’re a professional cookie baker. Using a really good sugar cookie recipe, a real buttercream recipe and fun sprinkles you will be the hit of the party!
The Christmas Set Plunge Cookie Cutters that I found are adorable. I love that they have character without icing. But any bite-size small cookie cutter will work and will be just as fun to dip in the icing and eat! My favorite sugar cookie recipe for cut-out cookies is from my friend Liz over at Farmwife Cooks – it’s freaking delicious and cookies hold their shape after baking.
Liz’s Sour Cream Sugar Cookies paired with my Buttercream Frosting are a match made in heaven!
I love me some Pillsbury ready-made cookie dough from the refrigerator section so no shame in that game. Just know that it doesn’t hold its shape as well after baking. And using some store-bought icing never hurt anyone it’s the finished product that people are gonna love, not the path you took to get there!
Christmas Cookie Dippers
There are a couple of ways to present these:
- Packaged party favors for school classrooms using disposable lidded containers and treat bags.
- Party treats using a small bar jar or any small container for the icing dipping.
Packaged Party Favors
Classroom, teacher treats, work treats – everyone will love these.
You can use plastic portion cups with lids for the icing and sprinkles than a cute holiday treat bag or box to hold the icing cup and the bite-size cookies. Everything you need for a great homemade Christmas snack is pre-packaged and ready to hand out treats!
Party Treats
I used small ball jars for the icing, making a bunch up and setting them on the table next to a platter of bite-size dipping cookies. You could also go ahead and stack the cookies in the jar on top of the icing.
I used an icing decorating bag to put the icing into the jar. Of course, I added some holiday sprinkles and it’s a super simple party treat that’s easy to make ahead.
