Jam Glow Star Crunch Holiday Cookies

Bake

9. Bake at 350°F (180°C) for 10–12 minutes, watching for edges that turn lightly golden while the centers remain soft. The jam should look slightly set, and the cereal topping will lightly toast without browning too deeply.

The Holiday Hush Finish

10. Let the cookies cool completely on a rack so they firm up and the jam settles without smudging.
11. Dust generously with powdered sugar for a snowy, delicate finish that enhances their festive look. This final touch adds a soft sweetness while letting the jam centers shine.

Serving Tips

• Pair with hot chocolate or tea to highlight the warm vanilla and buttery notes.
• Add edible glitter for extra sparkle, especially for holiday gifting or party platters.
• Try different jams—raspberry, cranberry, or mixed berry—to create colorful variety while keeping the same reliable method.
