The Most Popular Christmas Cookies in the Midwest
It's finally Christmas cookie season!
Today I had my very first Christmas cookie of 2019, and it happened to be my absolute FAVORITE: Peanut Butter Blossoms (aka Hersey Kiss Cookies). Unfortunately, they were not chosen as the most popular Christmas cookie in the state of Iowa.
A new study from General Mills shows the most popular Christmas cookies in 2019 in all 50 states. They got their results by looking at the most clicked-on cookie recipes from Bettycrocker.com, Pillsbury.com, and Tablespoon.com. The number one cookie in Iowa is actually one I've never heard of before: Swedish Kringla. You can check out a recipe for Swedish Kringla from Pillsbury HERE.
Popular cookies in surrounding states include:
- Christmas Snickerdoodles - Minnesota
- Cake Mix Gooey Butter Cookies - Missouri
- Easy Spritz Cookies - Illinois
- Easy Christmas Crinkle Cookies - South Dakota
- Peanut Butter-Chocolate Cookies - Nebraska
- German Almond Cookies - Wisconsin
