The Cookies That Show Up At Easter

Easter baking is the kind you do with someone else in the kitchen. Cookies keep a few days, travel to church and to your mother-in-law's, and there's always a cousin who only eats the frosted ones.

Cooks on Pepper reach for this collection the week before Easter, when the ham is planned and the dessert isn't, or on a Saturday afternoon when the kids want to help roll and cut shapes.

Every recipe here is a cookie worth passing around: cut-out sugar cookies, gg Lousley's old fashioned sugar cookies, carrot cake cookies, two kinds of lemon cookies, coconut macaroons with and without chocolate chips, and Greek Easter koulourakia.

Quick Tips

  1. 1

    Chill the cut-out dough

    Rest sugar cookie dough in the fridge at least 1 hour before rolling. Cold dough holds its shape and won't spread into blobs.

  2. 2

    Zest before you juice

    Grate the lemon zest first, about 2 tablespoons for a full batch, then juice. Rub the zest into the sugar so the flavor spreads through the dough.

  3. 3

    Line pans for macaroons

    Use parchment, not just a greased pan — the condensed milk in macaroons sticks hard. Bake 20 to 25 minutes until the coconut tips are golden.

  4. 4

    Frost only cooled cookies

    Let sugar cookies sit 30 minutes until fully cool. Icing on a warm cookie slides right off the edge.
