The following Vintage Christmas Cookie Recipes were found folded in a cookbook that I bought secondhand. Woman’s Day created this feature, so you could make your own little cookbook. It’s from Woman’s Day, December issue in 1953.
I realize it’s not Christmas, but I just came across them and wanted to get them scanned because as you can see, the crease from being folded is tearing. Some of these vintage Christmas cookie recipes are in later editions of cookbooks by Woman’s Day, but recipes change through the years and I wanted to preserve the vintage versions.
I fondly remember Melt-in-the-Mouth cookies and the Pinwheels. Vintage Christmas Cookie Recipes can give that extra special thoughtfulness to your holiday season.
Here’s another Chocolate Pinwheel Cookie Recipe.
What a find! Thanks for sharing.
These are my Mom’s lost cookie recipes that I searched for several years ago online but couldn’t find. She said she got them from Woman’s Day magazine at the supermarket probably the year she married in 1953.
Funny too, cause she had them cut out inside another book. We never knew what happened to them.
The ones she made were the Little Butter’S’ s,
regular pinwheels & the Christmas tree cutouts. They were all fantastic!
Wouldn’t that be funny if the ones you found had been hers?!
