Holiday Fiesta Cookies are everything a winter treat should be — warm, cozy, buttery, and kissed with festive cinnamon. These galletas con canela are soft on the inside with gently crisp edges, filling your kitchen with the nostalgic aroma of holiday baking. Simple yet full of charm, they’re the kind of cookie that disappears quickly from any dessert table, making them perfect for family gatherings, cookie exchanges, or a quiet evening with a mug of cocoa.
The dough comes together effortlessly with pantry staples, and the cinnamon-sugar coating adds both sparkle and flavor. As they bake, the cookies spread slightly and take on a beautiful golden edge while staying tender in the center. They’re wonderfully versatile too — equally delicious as classic cinnamon cookies or enhanced with holiday spices like nutmeg or almond extract.
These cookies feel both familiar and festive, delivering that timeless holiday comfort in every bite. Whether you enjoy them fresh from the oven or once they’ve completely cooled, they’re guaranteed to bring a little extra joy to your season.
