I’m so happy to be partnering with Coca-Cola to bring you this delicious cookie recipe! Thank you for supporting the brands that make Wine & Glue possible.
If you have been following my blog for a while, you probably know that I lost my mom a few years back. She passed away just a few days before Christmas just hours after we had Gavin. There have been so many challenges that have come with losing my mom, but far and away, the biggest challenge has been being a mom without her. There have been countless times when I have wished that I could just pick up a phone and call her.
But! I have friends. I have the most wonderful friends on the planet. They have kiddos, little kiddos like mine, and they have been there for me through the last nine years of mothering in a way I could have only dreamed of. I have totally come to rely on my co-moms (is that a weird thing to call them . . . you get what I’m saying, right? Like co-workers). They get me, they listen, and they reassure me all.the.time. that I’m not absolutely screwing up every last thing.
There are three friends in particular, Cathy, Meaghan, and Rachel, that I lean on super hard, especially around the holidays. We have a tradition that is going on something like seven years of getting together one Saturday every December and baking our tails off making treats, but mainly just hanging out, drinking wine, and talking about all the things that goes into being moms. We listen to Christmas music, we laugh, and we lean on each other. And it is one of my very favorite Christmas traditions. It has made, what could be just a horrible time of year for me, more than bearable. It has made it actually delightful.
So when Coca-Cola asked me to write about who makes my holidays brighter, and who I would like to #ShareACoke with, it is these three who totally popped into my mind right away. How great are these customized glass bottles? I think they are so cute, I can’t wait to give them to my friends with some of these Coca-Cola Cookies! Head over to the #ShareACoke website and you can see how easy it is to customize and order some for all the special people in your life!
Once you get your customized bottles, you can make some of these cookies to go with it for your special someone who makes your holidays brighter. These cookies are amazing. So super soft and delicious and with the best Coca-Cola Frosting to go on them. They are going to be a new holiday favorite . . . . maybe even all year long ;)
Coca-Cola Cookies with Coca-Cola Frosting
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 cup butter at room temperature (see note)
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar packed
- 1/2 cup Coca-Cola at room temperature
- 1 egg room temperature
- 2 tsps vanilla extract
- For frosting
- 8 TBSPs butter room temperature
- 1/4 cup Coca-Cola at room temperature
- 4 cups powdered sugar
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, baking soda, and baking powder.
- Cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulate sugar, until light and fluffy, about two minutes.
- Beat in the vanilla extract, then the egg, then the Coca-Cola, until just combined.
- Slowly beat in the flour mixture, about a half of a cup at a time, until just combined.
- Using a 1 1/2 TBSP cookie scoop, scoop cookie dough onto a parchment paper or silicon mat lined baking sheet. The cookies should be about two inches apart to allow for some spreading.
- Bake for 13 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through baking. Remove from the oven, allow to sit on the pan for about two minutes, then remove to a cooling wrack to cool completely before.
- To make frosting, beat the butter until it begins to turn creamy, then add the first cup of sugar. Once combined, add the Coca-Cola. Then add in the remaining cups of sugar one at a time. Pipe onto cooled cookies and top with sprinkles.

I would love to share a Coke with my 1st grade teacher partners! They work tirelessly for their students and could use a Coke for a pick-me-up day!
That makes my heart so happy! Great teachers are such a blessing to this world!
Rachel says
I love this recipe and cannot wait to try it out!! I would probably share a Coke with my dad ☺️ We both have a thing about appreciating a nice cold Coke (especially when it’s in a glass bottle). I call him Fasha, which I picked up when I was like 13 from an Austin powers movie ???? When I first started calling him that he hated it, but after almost a decade of me calling him Fasha he has finally accepted it! I would love to be able to give him a Coke that said Fasha (and make him keep it FOREVER). ???? This is a great giveaway, thanks for the opportunity and for this recipe!!
I love this story!

I’d like to share a coke with my mother. She’s always been there for me and it’s hard to live in a different state than her now. I want to show her some love!

I would love to share a Coke with my family for Christmas!! But since two of my boys are in the military they won’t be home for Christmas.
But thanks to this recipe I can share a Coke with them by sending them some of the cookies!!! Thank you so much!

When I am with my best friend/cousin, MJ, she and I like to share a Coke, eat popcorn, and watch movies. Sometimes we share a Coke and just talk. She’s a good listener and gives great advice. I am so fortunate to have MJ in my life. I can’t wait to give her this cookie recipe!

Do you think this could be modified into a bar cookie recipe? What’s your opinion? Thanks.
PS I always add a Coke/Diet Coke and a pack of dry onion soup mix to my roast in the crockpot. It makes the roast tender and the taste is different.
I do! I think you will just have to watch it for how long to cook, take it out when the edges just turn golden brown, spray the pan well, and let it cool completely before you cut into it.

I always loved Coca Cola cake. Now I need to try the cookies. I would share a Coke with my mom. Stories like yours remind me that I need to spend as much time with her as possible while she’s still here.
That makes me so happy <3

I’d like to share a Coke with my friend Jenny who volunteers with kids at our local Ronald McDonald House….at the holidays and all year round.

Stupid question, the butter says (see note) but I can’t find the note anywhere. I’d also love to #ShareACoke with my dad, one of the hardest working men I know and he’s always been a loyal Coke drinker!
Thank you for pointing that out! It’s just about how you know your butter is soft. I will add it now!
