Rosh Hashanah Fancy Schmancy Cookie Gift Box

For Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, it's traditional to celebrate with apples and honey to ring in a sweet new year. Cookies aren't quite as traditional—yet. But i'm guessing once these ones hit the table, they'll become an annual must-have.

Just for the season, the pastry mavens at Zingerman's Bakehouse have put together a collection to please everyone from a boychik to a bubbe. Each box contains two types of cookies. First up are Apple Rugelach: we take our buttery, flaky rugelach dough and wrap it around a spiced apple preserve filling. And second are adorable bite-sized Cinnamon Stars, a lightly spiced cookie made with almond flour that's way too easy to keep eating. (If you have any cinnamon stars left at the end of Rosh Hashanah, you might want to keep them for Yom Kippur—they're a take on zimtsterne, a German classic that's often eaten when breaking the Yom Kippur fast. The star shape is thought to represent the first evening star that appears in the sky and marks the end of the Yom Kippur fast.)

They're all baked at Zingerman's Bakehouse with all-natural ingredients like real butter and organic flour. They come packaged in a handsome box, ready for gifting (or just opening-and-devouring).
