It’s December! Can you believe we’re almost to the end of 2023?
Disney has a lot of exciting projects in store for 2024, but before we get there, there’s plenty to experience throughout the resort for December. We’re especially loving the Christmas Tree Stroll in Disney Springs and all the holiday snacks you can grab, and now another two — maybe the best ones of the year — have finally arrived!
Gideon’s Bakehouse is one of our favorite stops in Disney Springs for its iconic cookies and cake slices, but we absolutely adore that every new month brings us special dessert offerings.

For December, you can grab the EPIC Kris Kringle and Krampus cookies, but the top of the menu also says that they’ll be dropping some surprise treats throughout the whole month!
For our trip, we grabbed the Krampus cookie, which is the darkest chocolate mixed with a blast of cooling Andes mint.

All we can say is YUM! This one is excellent year after year. The rich chocolate flavor mixes so well with the strong mint taste. Plus, there’s a smidgen of salt that just ties the whole thing together.
Seriously, we had ZERO complaints about this cookie. If you’re a fan of mint and chocolate, this will easily be one of your favorite treats of the year.
You can also grab the beloved Kris Kringle cookie, which is a white chocolate coffee bean treat.
This cookie is fantastic for white chocolate fans, but you’ve gotta love coffee! Even though the ground coffee beans give a subtle flavor experience here, it’s definitely still noticeable!
The good news is, these will be here all month — plus we’ll be seeing some secret treats, too! Stay tuned!
