What’s your state’s favorite Christmas cookie? To be honest, I like them all. But if you have to pick a favorite, here are the favorite Christmas cookies for North and South Carolina.
A new study is looking at the best holiday cookie. Food researchers at Menu Price compiled data from Google searches to see which cookie recipe reigned supreme in each state.
North Carolina cookie eaters love the Moravian cookie. I had to look it up. I had never heard of it. Not sure if I believe in this one.
South Carolina makes more sense to me. In South Carolina, we love the Gingerbread cookie.
Fox 4 News says the most Googled cookie recipe was gingerbread, as it took the No. 1 spot in seven states. The next most popular Christmas cookie was sugar, followed by Mexican wedding cookies, black and white, oatmeal, and Snickerdoodle.

3 Most Popular South Carolinian Desserts You Should Know
If you’re anything like me then you’re a sweet kind of person. I love desserts, sugary treats, and all of that all the time. My sweet tooth is beyond strong and is always calling my name. Whenever I am craving something sweet, it’s pretty hard to determine what I want. From cookies to ice cream to baked goods, they are all so good. But, being from South Carolina there are some treats that are just a staple for us to know.
Taste Atlas is giving us the three most popular South Carolinian desserts you should know. These are three, but I know there are a few more to add to this list. My aunt has taught me many things and baking some of our favorite recipes that have been passed down is one of the best things. If you do not know any of these treats, then you are missing out. Check out some popular desserts famous in South Carolina that you 100% need to know.
Huguenot Torte
A favorite from Charleston is the Huguenot Torte treat. This is a baked apple and pecan or walnut pudding cake with crispy meringue topping and served with whipped cream. Taste Atlas says this is a pretty recent recipe for the Charleston base. The recipe first showed up in the 1950s in a cookbook and began to blow up shortly after.
Benne Wafers
Now this is a great one for sure! Benne Wafers is a traditional American cookie coming straight out of Charleston. Made up of a great combo of butter, sugar, flour, eggs, baking powder, and benne. Benne is the Bantu word for sesame seeds. They are a cookie dated back years and years and are now a treat that tourists can enjoy when visiting.
Lady Baltimore Cake
Now, this may be a new one for me. The Lady Baltimore Cake is Taste Atlas No. 1 South Carolina dessert. I have personally never heard of or had this which is kind of crazy being from Charleston. This famous cake was created by two women who ran Charleston’s Lady Baltimore Tea Room. The cake is several layers of white sponge cake and a rich marshmallow-like frosting mixed with chopped nuts and dried fruits.
