SHOW SYNOPSIS
THE GREAT CHRISTMAS COOKIE BAKE-OFF! combines the time-honored tradition of Christmas cookies with the ever-popular phenomenon of reality baking competitions.
Eight young cookie chefs have been selected from all over the country to battle it out for first prize at the Cookie Coliseum. Just as no two cookies are the same, each contestant reveals their unique personality through song. Suspense mounts as the chefs are eliminated one by one, by three distinguished celebrity judges.
Over the course of the competition, feelings of intense rivalry give way to virtues of charity, family, and forgiveness, as the chefs learn what really makes for a winning Christmas recipe.
