We have all seen those popular Pillsbury cookies, whether it was in the store or on social media like Tik Tok, Pinterest, and VSCO. Pillsbury has cookies for all seasons like Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. 

There is a big debate over whether these cookies are just used for pictures or if they are genuinely good cookies. In my opinion, these cookies are cute and festive, but I purchase them because they taste good. I love these cookies, because I grew up eating these, and my mom would bake them all the time. Every time I buy these cookies, I think of my childhood and it brings me joy.  

The cookies are soft sugar cookies, and they come frozen and ready to bake. Some people prefer these raw, but personally I like them baked. These cookies tend to overbake a little, so I would bake them a little less than the recommended time. You are supposed to put them in the oven for about 8-12 minutes, but if you prefer a soft and chewy cookie, you should put them in the oven for 8 minutes. They taste like typical sugar cookies, but they do have a slight artificial taste. Many people like to believe that the different designs cause the cookie to taste different, but they all taste the same to me.  

I love how quick it is to pop them in the oven, because I don’t like waiting long for cookies to bake. Now that it’s Christmas time, I am super excited to bake these for my friends and family. The box has 24 cookies, which is the perfect amount for my family of 5.  Although these cookies are a delicious treat for the holidays, me and my friends never pass up the opportunity to take pictures. 

Between the affordable price and the delicious taste, these cookies are the best option for your selection of holiday cookies. When I open my fridge to see a box of Pillsbury cookies, my day gets ten times better.
