9 July Holidays

Sugar cookies were pioneered by German Protestants in Nazareth, Pennsylvania, who created the predecessor to the modern round, buttery, sugary goodness we know and love. They were so influential that these cookies were originally called Nazareth Cookies.

National Sugar Cookie Day is celebrated on July 9.

National Sugar Cookie Day is celebrated to honor and enjoy the deliciousness of sugar cookies. Sugar cookies are a popular type of cookie made from a simple dough consisting of sugar, flour, butter, eggs, and vanilla extract.
