Build a Wicked or Wizard of Oz themed cookie box with these easy recipes. They are perfect for a themed Christmas cookie tin, a Wicked watch party, or pretty much any occasion in Oz.

Everyone in my family loves Wicked (the Broadway musical AND the movie), so this year in honor of Wicked: For Good coming out, I decided to make my holiday cookies Wicked themed! If you’re looking for inspiration for an Oz themed cookie platter as well, check out these recipes below.

1. Elphaba and Glinda Swirl Cookies (Matcha Strawberry)

These matcha strawberry cookies have a magical swirl, reminiscent of the original Wicked movie poster. They’d look extra fun dipped in some sanding sugar!

2. Tin Man Black Sesame Cookies

These black sesame cookies have a natural dark gray color. If you add a little heart sprinkle, they’ll remind you of the Tin Man! Bonus: the cookies are only 3 ingredients.

3. Yellow Brick Road Butter Mochi

You always need some sort of brownie or bar to mix it up right? My classic Hawaii style butter mochi recipe is prefect for a yellow brick road. It’s already normally cut into rectangles and has a natural yellow color from egg yolks. Plus the chewy butter mochi texture is a nice contrast to all the cookies.

5. Elphaba and Scarecrow Dubai Chocolate Cookies

I thought that the kataifi (shredded phyllo dough) from the Dubai chocolate trend looked just like scarecrow straw, so I turned my easy 4-ingredient pistachio matcha cookies into Elphaba + Scarecrow cookies! Read through the blog post to see the recipe modification instructions.
