Introduction
Christmas Cookies by George Strait was released in 1999 on the compilation album A Country Christmas. The song was written by Rex Linn and Marty Stuart and quickly became a favorite for the holiday season.
The lighthearted tune tells the story of a man who uses the pretext of helping his wife bake cookies as a way to sneak bites of dough while she isn’t looking. The song’s playful lyrics and Strait’s signature vocals have made it a staple of Christmas music radio playlists for over two decades.
In addition to Strait’s original version, “Christmas Cookies” has been covered by a number of other artists, including Lainey Wilson, The Oak Ridge Boys, and Loose Cattle. The song’s enduring popularity is a testament to its fun and festive spirit.
