There’s something about a Christmas Sugar Cookie Pie that wraps your family in the cozy vibes of the season, even when the hustle of daily life feels endless. I still remember the first time I tried making a Christmas Sugar Cookie Pie for my crew. It was one of those busy holiday afternoons when I needed a dessert that didn’t require hours of fussing around but still brought that special touch to our table. I found this recipe tucked away in a holiday cookie group, and I thought, “Why not?” The Christmas Sugar Cookie Pie looked like a festive sugar cookie dessert everyone could enjoy—and it quickly turned into a comfort food win for us.
The best part was how easily it fit into my chaotic kitchen routine. Between school pick-ups and last-minute holiday crafts, this pie gave me a quick, sweet way to say, “Here’s a little love on a plate.” My family’s reaction? Pure delight. The kids kept asking for “just one more slice,” and my husband gave me that grateful smile that makes all the kitchen rush worth it. That simple joy reminded me how food, especially a Christmas Sugar Cookie Pie, can be a small but powerful way to bring folks together.
Since that first try, this Christmas Sugar Cookie Pie has become a staple for us every holiday season. It’s not only about tradition; it’s about making a dessert that’s approachable for busy moms who want satisfying flavors without the overwhelm. I’ve tweaked the sugar cookie pie crust a bit here and there to suit our tastes, but the heart of the recipe stays the same: tender cookie flavor in a festive holiday dessert pie that everyone loves. Fellow busy moms, if your family needs a comforting sweet that feels like a warm hug and keeps things simple, I’m telling you, this Christmas Sugar Cookie Pie has got your back.

Ingredients

- 1 package sugar cookie dough (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon almond extract (optional)
- Sprinkles or holiday candies for decoration
Instructions
Prepare the Crust
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Press the sugar cookie dough evenly into a 9-inch pie plate, making sure to go up the sides to form a crust. Bake the crust for about 10-12 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove from oven and set aside.
Make the Filling
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and almond extract (if using) until smooth and combined.
Bake the Pie
Pour the filling over the partially baked cookie crust. Decorate the top with sprinkles or holiday candies as desired. Return the pie to the oven and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes or until the filling is set but still slightly jiggly in the center.
Cool and Serve
Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool completely before slicing. For a perfect festive dessert, serve with a dollop of whipped cream.
