Movie Character Sugar Cookies

Pillsbury is Offering Buddy the Elf Cookies This Holiday Season

— October 19, 2018 — Pop Culture
Holiday movies and baking go hand-in-hand which is why Pillsbury's new Buddy the Elf cookies are the ultimate Christmas indulgence.

This holiday season, consumers can get their hands on ready-to-bake Buddy the Elf sugar cookies. Like the brand's other holiday offerings, the cookies consist of sugar cookie dough embellished with a colorful design in the middle. This time, the design in the center is Buddy the Elf's iconic green hat. To cook the movie-themed cookies, consumers simply pop the dough in the oven and bake until just crisp.

If you're planning a viewing of 'Elf' this holiday season, head over to the refrigerated section of your local Target, Walmart, Kroger, Meijer, Albertson/Safeway, or Ahold/Delhaize, and pick up a pack of the new Buddy the Elf cookies.
