Did you know that the modern day holiday cookies we know and love today began with recipes from Medieval Europe? As people began to travel and explore other cultures, previously unavailable ingredients such as cinnamon, ginger, almonds, and dried fruit made their way into Western Europe’s homes and bakeries. The earliest known appearance of Christmas Cookies in the US was in the 17th century by Dutch Settlers. In the late 1800s and early 1900s, cookie cutters began appearing in the US thanks to more relaxed import laws, and recipes using them became more prevalent. North American traditions of leaving out cookies and milk for Santa originated in the 1930s. (That is, if mom or dad don’t eat them first!) As you can see, cookies are a beloved traditional holiday food!
