Ingredients
Cookies
- 2 cup All-Purpose Flour
- 0.25 cup Cocoa Powder
- 1 cup Butter softened
- 0.5 cup Sugar powdered
- 1 tsp Baking Powder
- 1 tsp Oil
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 2 tbsp Water
Frosting
- 0.5 cup Butter softened
- 1.5 cup Sugar powdered
- 0.5 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 1 tbsp Water
Decoration
Instructions
- In a bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour and cocoa powder. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy. This incorporates air for a tender cookie.
- Whisk in the baking powder, oil, water, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill for 10-15 minutes. Chilling helps prevent spreading during baking.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Divide the chilled dough into three portions. From one portion, roll out 10 large, equal-sized balls. Repeat with the second portion for 10 medium balls, and the third portion for 10 small balls. Flatten each ball slightly.
- Arrange the cookies on the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 1 inch between each. Bake the large cookies for 15 minutes, the medium cookies for 15 minutes, and the small cookies for 11-12 minutes, or until the edges are set.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- To make the frosting, cream together the softened butter and 1 cup of powdered sugar until light and fluffy.
- Whisk in the water and vanilla extract. Gradually add the remaining 1/2 cup of powdered sugar and whisk until smooth and creamy.
- To assemble the Christmas trees, place the large cookies on a serving platter. Pipe a swirl of frosting onto each large cookie. Top with a medium cookie and another swirl of frosting. Finally, add a small cookie and a final swirl of frosting.
- Decorate each frosted layer with Christmas tree sprinkles.
- Refrigerate the assembled cookies until ready to serve. Separate layers for individual servings.
Recipe Notes

Expert Tips
- Use a sharp cookie cutter to prevent the dough from tearing and ensure clean tree shapes.
- If your kitchen is warm, consider chilling your baking sheet before placing the cookies on it to further prevent spreading.
- Get creative with the decorations! Use different colored sprinkles, edible glitter, or even small candies to personalize your cookie trees.
Storage Instructions
- Store undecorated cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
- Assemble with frosting and decorations just before serving to maintain crispness and visual appeal.
