This year’s Christmas cookie box includes 12 delicious recipes and all my tips and tricks for making the perfect treat box!!
While it might look like all fun and games, a decent amount of thought and planning goes into every gorgeous cookie box you see out there.
Let’s walk through the whole process together to make sure your Christmas cookie box turns out as amazing as possible!
The key to making a stunning Christmas cookie box is all in the assortment of cookies. You want a variety of flavors, shapes, and colors.
Having a variety of flavors and textures is pretty self-explanatory! It keeps the cookie box interesting and makes sure there’s the perfect cookie for everyone.
In terms of shape, having different shapes and sizes is crucial. It not only gives the box an interesting, eye-catching look, but it also allows you to properly fill the box. If you have a bunch of large cookies, there will be gaps between them that make the box look like it’s not completely filled. Having a mixture of smaller and larger cookies lets you fill in all those little gaps and create a gorgeous-looking box.
It’s also a good idea to consider color. If you have all brown cookies, the box is going to look a bit lackluster. Incorporating some bright pops of color gives the box a festive, cheerful look! This can be done by coloring the cookie dough or frosting, adding some colorful sprinkles, or picking a cookie with a fun design.
