15 Jewish Cookie Recipes

Published: Oct 27, 2021 · Modified: Oct 27, 2022 by Samantha Ferraro · This post may contain affiliate links · Leave a Comment

I have very fond memories of visiting Jewish and Italian bakeries when I was little in New York. The rows of colorful Italian rainbow cookies and all the different rugelach is like a cookie wonderland!

Here, I gathered a list of traditional and fun (with a twist) Italian and Jewish cookies that are perfect for baking around the holidays or anytime you need a nostalgic treat. For a sweet Jewish treat, try my Chocolate Matzo Toffee.

I'd love to know, what is your favorite cookie?
