Five talented cookie makers reveal who's on Santa's list by creating one cookie that shows someone doing a good deed and another with someone being naughty! Hosts Ree Drummond and Eddie Jackson decide who ends up on Santa's good side and which naughty cookie-maker goes home. In round two, the cookiers create the nicest displays of all -- cookie angel figurines. They'll have to use good spirits in their festive figurines, like cinnamon schnapps, mezcal, honey liqueur and white chocolate liqueur. When the heavens clear, only one cookie maker will emerge with the $10,000 prize and the title of Christmas Cookie Champion.
Five crafty cookie makers turn back the clock with their own interpretation of a young Santa and Mrs. Claus before hosts Ree Drummond and Eddie Jackson decide which designs stand the test of time. Then, the bakers reach deep into the roots of Christmas by building cookie greenhouses with edible windows where Christmas trees can grow and thrive. Their gorgeous greenhouses will be infused with fresh herbs, including basil, rosemary, tarragon, and sage. The cookie maker who constructs the grandest greenhouse will earn some serious green with the $10,000 prize and the title of Christmas Cookie Champion.
Christmas is the perfect time for no-strings-attached gift giving, but hosts Ree Drummond and Eddie Jackson have five incredible cookie makers adding a lot of strings as they take on a new trend in DIY Christmas decor -- string art! The joyous journey continues as the carnival comes to town, and the remaining bakers construct Christmas cookie carousels that'd make
the perfect spinning centerpiece. To capture the essence of a carnival, they'll incorporate traditional circus foods into their cookies, like kettle corn, peanuts, caramel apples and churros. One talented cookie maker will take home $10,000 and the title of Christmas Cookie Champion!
Santa has fallen behind on toys this year, so host Eddie Jackson recruits five crafty cookie makers to make decorated cookie toys in the first round. Judges Ree Drummond, Dan Langan and Aarti Sequeira decide which three bakers have saved Christmas for all the good little girls and boys. The gift-giving doesn't stop in the display round as the three remaining cookie masters must make entirely edible cookie boxes to fill with Christmas cookies. They say it's better to give than receive, but in this case, the best cookie maker will take home a $10,000 present.
Everyone's invited to the ranch for three fabulous seasonal snapshots as the Drummonds count down to Christmas. Ree's whipping up cozy and casual Rigatoni and Meatballs to eat while they trim the tree, then delicious munchies -- her mom's Holiday Bacon Appetizers -- so she's stocked up for whoever drops by the ranch over the festive season. Then it's a magical Christmas Eve and time to bake Santa's treats. He's asked for chocolate this year when he comes down the chimney, so he's getting incredible Chocolate Mint Brownie Bites. Christmas is coming on the ranch and everyone's in the festive spirit.
Ree Drummond is sharing the dinners and sweet treats that her sons love the most. There are Chocolate Spreads decorated with all sorts of fun and crazy toppings for football camp kids, and Breakfast Quesadillas make an easy on-the-go meal for when Bryce and Todd are too busy playing to stop and eat. Another day and another football practice calls for Quick Shells and Cheese, a shortcut pasta dish that never fails to please, and finally, it's sweet fun for mother and son when they make Ice Cream Cookie Sundaes with yummy slice-and-bake cookies and over-the-top toppings.
