Cinnamon Bear Cookies
I struggled over whether or not to post this Cinnamon Bear Cookie recipe. I cook and bake a lot more than you see on this blog. However,I only post the things that I think taste really good, look really nice, and photography perfectly. #1 is generally not a problem. However, I’m not not good at presentation!
These are a little rustic and imperfect, but I’m trying to be less of a perfectionist, so here they are!
I’d like to tell you my kids made these cinnamon bears, but my now you know I don’t have any!! 🙂
Regardless these sweet cinnamon bear cookis will look adorable on a cookie tray. Best enjoyed with a homemade cinnamon coffee yum!

Thanks so much Michelle!!
These are so cute! I make candy cane cookies every year. I posted the recipe on my food blog: http://www.thecatladycook.blogspot.com
I am glad you posted these awesome cute looking Polar Bear Cookies. I shared this recipe on my Facebook page and like how easy it is to make. I am going to make these for Christmas. My family would love these!
Yay. Let me know what you think Karen.
Thanks 4 the share I really appreciate it!
Those are not only adorable, they sound delicious too. Thanks for the recipe.
These are so cute. I totally need to make them!
I cannot get over how cute these are and they turned out so perfect! I just pinned this for later.
Thanks for the pin Angela! 🙂
So ridiculously cute, I’d have a hard time eating them!
Those are super cute! And they sound pretty easy to make too!
Most of the time all the Christmas cookies I’ve seen have “been done” before. But this is the first time I’ve ever found a Cinnamon Polar Bear cookie and I love it! I don’t think they look imperfect at all, I think they’re great.
Thanks so much Liza <3
Oh those are so cute! I remember making something similar to these when I was a kid, but my mom made them with cinnamon bread instead of cookies. These look fantastic.
I LOVE these, almost too cute to eat
These bears are so cute and have such personality! Cinnamon bear cookies would perk up any cookie platter. 🙂 Are these a soft or a crunchy cookie?
Hi Wendy,
Thanks so much! 🙂
They are more on the crunchy side
These are just too cute!
Thanks for the Post, Picture’s and the Recipe!
These cookies look so cute…and delicious too. These cookies definitely make a great Christmas treat. Thank you for sharing this recipe.
Your bears are the cutest little guys ever.
Do NOT ever criticize your photography or presentation! This was perfect. I tried to photograph a 3D Halloween goodie and got a backdrop of the sofa, cat toys, carpet, etc. Geez….. Not as easy as it looks.
Just seeing these now, Dec. 22nd, and have to have cookies ready by tomorrow, but I’ll definitely be saving the photo and recipe for next year. Who wouldn’t want a cutie pie bear like this on their cookie tray?
Thanks Tavette -hugs-
I love the idea that these are not chocolate or frosted or any of the usual flavors. I think a cinnamon cookie is just right for my cookie plate ..thanks so much
What a cute idea .
I’d hate to miss out on a great recipe because of some photos! Yours are just fine and I love the recipe! Thanks for taking a chance and sharing!
These are good. I made half with chocolate chips and half with butterscotch chips. Thanks for the recipe.
These are adorable!!
i would just eat too many if i made them..uughh
These are so, so cute! My mom used to make cinnamon raisin teddy bears rolls. The cookies would be much easier! I can’t wait to do these with my boys. Thanks so much for sharing. Have a great day!
Thanks so much Brooke!
These are so cute!!! Thank you for sharing at Simple Supper Tuesday.
Thank you Cindy!
These look cute and yummy! I think they photographed great, too.
Thanks so much Keri 🙂
Oh my goodness, these are SO ADORABLE!!!! What a cute idea!!!
How fun!! Can’t wait to make a batch…thanks so much for sharing!
These are adorable. Let me just say I’m a teddy bear fanatic. Growing up I always requested a teddy bear cake for my birthday (single layer round pan for head, square for body and cupcake ears, hands, and feet). I’ve never seen bear cookies and I love them.

Do you think I could substitute the margarine with oil?
Thanks 🙂
I wouldn’t it might make the cookies too dense. Maybe try Crisco though?

Something is missing from directions for Cinnamon Bear cookies. How do you divide dough for head and then ears and nose. You dont say how much
Hi Peggy,
I don’t divide the dough I pull it all from the same dough. (Large ball for the bear, smaller for the nose,and even smaller for the ears).
