Enjoy making all the kinds of holiday cookies with this recipe!!🎄- Make sure to chill the cut-out & piped cookie dough completely in a fridge until right before you bake them so that they spread too much in the oven.
I LOVE this recipe, but I was wondering if almond flour is the same thing as almond meal or ground almonds, or is it an actual flour? Also, can I freeze this dough in batches so I can bake the cookies as I need them? Thank you sweetie for sharing this recipe. From Amanda Jones in Melbourne, Australia
I followed this whole recipe and I almost died of exhaustion standing up for like 5+ hours 🤣, but I now know how to strategize by prepping better. The cookies taste delish!
I always settle myself at a table or makeshift station, rolling dough etc, all in a chair. First Christmas I baked cookies I was standing, second Christmas I sat xD. I also kept liquids(water/tea) nearby to drink lol.
@haingo9079 So you say these recipes did work for you? Once I tried to follow a similar youtube cooking video and the cookies came out terrible, the whole recipe was wrong, with missing information etc. Now I would like to test this one and I hope it will work...
@@ildikoedit9110 The recipe worked, it's very detailed, precise, and really tasty. I had so many things working against me; I live in a tropical country, I have a gas oven and limited access to any of the cookie molds she has, but I did it anyways and made it work! Just make sure you prep everything beforehand, your fridge will be your bestie for the dough and don't handle the dough too much or the warmth from your hands will soften it too fast. Aya's recipes have never failed me.
A new watcher here - I legit didn't believe this could be done without a bunch of extra fuss, and I have been TAUGHT. Girl, you schooled me. I will admit when I'm wrong. What a fabulous video, and so very helpful! Thank you!
This base cookie dough is very tasty. I’m a picky baker and I love these cookies. Not too sweet but super flavourful and buttery. I also love the instructions in this video. Beautifully done!
Just wanted to say, I gave this recipe a try to make some gift boxes for family. I've tried similar recipes on UA-cam as well, but they never turned out well. This recipe was super easy to follow, and you are right, the gingerbread dough especially was super soft, but a couple of minutes in the fridge and it was good to go. It was actually the first gingerbread flavoured cookie that I really enjoyed! The other flavours were wonderful as well, I was skeptical about the chewy cookies, but they turned out to be my favourite. 😊 My 2 year old had a blast helping me cut-out shapes and taste test lol. All were exactly how you described, soft and buttery on the inside, with a perfectly crisp outside. I tripled the recipe on your website (using grams), and they turned out great - it was so fun to make a huge bunch of cookies! I hope you don't mind, I will definitely be saving your recipe for next year as well. I can't tell you how many I've tried over the years and they've turned out with no flavour, the recipe had so much butter that the cookies had no texture, ect. I just wanted to say thank you so much for the recipe, and thank you for all of your attention to detail in your video and on your website. It was extremely easy to navigate, and the hours and hours of work you've put into testing, editing the video, putting step-by-step pictures on the website are very clearly evident and appreciated. 😊 Wishing you and your family a very happy holiday season!
Tried this recipe last Christmas it was a big hit with the family made around 5 gift cookie tins for the family and everyone enjoyed it saying it didnt last long ❤
This is brilliant! I don't have the patience or stamina to make and bake all of these in one day, but I would probably divide the tasks over 2, or better yet, prepare the base dough, divide it, and delegate friends to create the different "flavors" and come back to trade.
I have made snow balls, pipped, chocolatechip, gingerbread man and chewy gingerbread. They are all good. I baked chewy gingerbread a little too long but taste still great. My favorite ones are gingerbread man and chocolate chip cookies. They are all perfect sweetness not too sweet and perfect small sizes. Great with coffee.
Wow Aya, this was so impressive. I don't even bake cookies but watched this from start to finish and I'm thinking of trying to make these for Christmas. Thanks for sharing your recipes and how you decorate so beautifully ❤
Thank you for the tips at the end; cooking cookies has always been my downfall. And these tips helped a lot. Much appreciated. Great video. Lovely watching all the varieties. You're an excellent presenter. Thanks, again.
I made 8 kinds of cookies from this recipe and they turned out amazing! So delicious! Thank you for this perfect cookie making tutorial! ❤ Best I ever made!
@@beatrizsandoval4395 Sorry for my late reply! I made vanilla snowball cookies and piped cookies, all three kinds of chewy cookies, gingerbread man cookies, Linzer and star cookies!
Very nice! I often dip my cookies (halfway) in chocolate, white or dark. Your presentation is great! This year I plan ribbon cookies, angel crisps and mint chocolate sandwich.
Thank you, Aya! This recipe has transformed my Christmas Cookie dilemma! These cookies are tasty, very cute and easy to make a good variety! Thank you for doing all the calculating for me too!
I made all 4 doughs but rolled all my cookies in balls, except for the piped cookies and ice box cookies. My favorites are the ice box and snowball cookies, but if the two, the snowball cookies are my favorites. I wanted good holiday cookies to eat during the Christmas holiday and these were perfect. I’m so glad I got to have what I wanted - really good Christmas cookies. Thank you ♥️
A long process, but very beautiful at the end! For anyone one in the UK thinking of replacing the molasses with golden syrup, make sure you add more flour to counter it being super sticky! Thanks for sharing :)
Ok I made these last year and it’s a lot of work but so worth it! I bought different fruit jams like apple, apricot, blueberry and made the best cookies ever😊 I didn’t want to share with my family. Every variety was delicious
This is awesome! Am having to bake cookies for church bake sale and look forward to trying. I like that I don't need to make icing for ginger bread cookies
This recipe is amazing!!! So easy to follow and fun cookies to make. Each type of cookie has about 6-8 each, although I skipped a few types. I can't pick my favorite! I'm excited to make more to give away as presents! Definitely will do again even thought it took 4 hours 😅
I want to do the same to gift to my loved ones. How many assorted boxes would you say one recipe yields? I’m calculating how many times I need to multiply it for. Thank you!!
I love your recipe and i enjoyed doing it…. As I am not as energetic I break down the process by 2. I did the desire dough and leave it to the chiller for next day Creation. The Fun-part is putting them to shapes and sizes and adding different nuts and dried fruits and see them rise …… Thank you very much for the demonstrations, the technics and beautiful Content, it is Inspiring ❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Merry Christmas Aya! Thank you for sharing your amazing gifts with us! May your holidays be filled with joy and your New Year be filled with health, happiness, and love❤️
Made this dough and it was very good! The time it takes to make each cookie dough, however took hours. I was exhausted after 6 kinds of cookies. I started baking after 3 hours of mixing and refrigerating. The cookies are very small but good to give away as gifts. I ended up making pizelles, peanut butter blossoms, and filling in the gift boxes. Overall great recipes! Happy holidays, everyone!
Super happy that it's one recipe and then you mix it up. It's a good video to send to my friends who are learning to bake. I'm the chaotic one who will bake for hours on end. I love being in the kitchen. But I also need recipes like this for when I have little ones around who want 10 cookies but I'm not going to make 10 different doughs. ^.^
Just watched suns not up but as soon as it is I’m making these was searching for days for great recipes and yours is hands down the best and simplest one offering such darling cookies. Can’t wait to get up and already shared with mom sister and niece 😂👍❤️ thank you awesome clear video 👏
I make a similar dough for thumbrint jam cookies and use different extracts, jams and toppings to make a variety of cookies. It's so fun to use your imagine and concoct different ones from 1 simple dough. These look amazing definately adding to my Christmas cookie count!
This Christmas cookie video is the only one I ever need I feel! It's fantastic and I love how we can be basic or follow her lead on getting them next-level at the end! THANK YOU!
You have by far the best baking channel on UA-cam. I can’t thank you enough for how much you have improved my skills as an amateur baker. Now I’m looking for a Yule log recipe in time for Christmas, but every time I find one, I can’t help but imagine how much better Aya’s recipe would be!
Hi lady . Your recipe it's fantastic and super decoration art sweets . Believe me never siet same your recipe in another place . Thank's for you and i am do't same your recipe video . From my country Lebanon to you best regards .🤝🌹👍🌷👏
My compliments to the chef! I never expected to see an Asian chef making Christmas cookies! 😲THANK YOU SO MUCH for these and especially your sliced cookies you spent so much time and work on, like the tree and the Santa! I do have a question though, on the base dough, can I substitute AP flour and almond extract for the almond flour, and if so, how much extract? THANKS AGAIN! GREAT JOB!
Thank you! About almond flour, you might be able to alternate with 1/3-2/3 of all purpose flour. I’m sorry I can’t give you an exact measurement since I haven’t tried it.
You are genius! I love all your valuable tips very useful I will make holiday cookies following yours 😜😜 Question! How many minutes you chill the dough cookie before baking? Thank you!
Enjoy making all the kinds of holiday cookies with this recipe!!🎄- Make sure to chill the cut-out & piped cookie dough completely in a fridge until right before you bake them so that they spread too much in the oven.
Hi Aya, love your recipe. Is it possible to just use all purpose flour, if I don’t have almond flour?
I LOVE this recipe, but I was wondering if almond flour is the same thing as almond meal or ground almonds, or is it an actual flour? Also, can I freeze this dough in batches so I can bake the cookies as I need them? Thank you sweetie for sharing this recipe. From Amanda Jones in Melbourne, Australia

You have beautiful hands. God bless you.
🎉🎉🎉”Bravo” … amazing from beginning to end results!!! Retired 32 yrs fellow Pastry Chef here 👍🍾
Thank you so much🥰🙏🏻

This is what I came here to say! I'm so sad I just found this channel! I wanted to be schooled last year! lol Merry Christmas to all of you!
This base cookie dough is very tasty. I’m a picky baker and I love these cookies. Not too sweet but super flavourful and buttery. I also love the instructions in this video. Beautifully done!
Tried this gluten free and they came out great incase anyone was wondering. I used bobs 1:1 for the ap flour. Cookies are so lovely!

I don't know how else to say this but this video *feels* like Christmas. I love it!
This is brilliant! I don't have the patience or stamina to make and bake all of these in one day, but I would probably divide the tasks over 2, or better yet, prepare the base dough, divide it, and delegate friends to create the different "flavors" and come back to trade.
this looks so fun, one box of cookies with lots of flavors with one cookie dough! I'll definitely give this a try.
Thank you😊

I’m also aya!! I was looking for a dough that evolves so I don’t have to make a whole bunch of completely separate ones, thank you!
Oh yay!🙌🏻😁 I’m glad you found what you were looking for!
I'm going to bake cookies with my daughter and give it to a senior home. This is good variety idea.
The best holiday baking video!

I love the rectangular icebox cookies the most! The leftover dough looks so fruity and yummy.
I just made these. I made 7 kinds. The sweetness is just right. The texture is great. I am bringing this to the office. Thank you Aya!
I made them this year. My cookies were ugly and not as pretty as yours, but the taste was fantastic. Everyone loved them. Thank you!
I’m glad everyone loved them! Thank you for letting me know🙏🏻

Is there an alternative to the almond flour or could I just do without it? Is it crucial to the recipes success?
