Christmas is just around the corner, and families from coast to coast will gather to celebrate the holidays and prepare their favorite festive treats.  

Christmas cookies are one holiday staple, and everyone has a different favorite. This year, Google Trends shared a map with USA TODAY of uniquely searched Christmas cookies by state in 2023. The map shows cookies that were overrepresented in a state compared to the country as a whole.  

Cultural Christmas cookies, including Italian, German, Mexican and Polish varieties, were favorites in states across the country. Others opted for the ever-popular gingerbread cookies or peanut butter blossoms, which are peanut butter cookies often made with chocolate in the center. 

Other states opted for unique cookies, such as Missouri’s Grinch Christmas Cookie, which are green, Dr. Seuss-inspired cookies that often use a cake mix base, powdered sugar and green food coloring.
