Each year, I count down to NYT Cookie Week, specifically to find out what Eric Kim has blessed us with! His previous two creations, gochujang caramel cookies (2022) and matcha latte cookies (2023) instantly became holiday go-tos.
After covering red and green in these earlier recipes, he keeps to the Christmas colors theme with these vibrant yellow Lemon-Turmeric Crinkle Cookies.
Though I typically prefer chewy cookies over cakey, these not-too-sweet, lemon-infused treats completely won me over! I’ve polished off the batch, sneaky some any chance I could.
At this rate, it won’t be long before my holiday cookie box collection consists exclusively of Eric Kim’s recipes.
