The Dawning 2024 had 20 cookie recipes. Each required an enemy ingredient, an action-based ingredient, and Essence of Dawning. This is a historical list for the event that began December 10, 2024; recipes or mechanics may differ in later Dawning events.
All Dawning 2024 cookie recipes
The recipe names and ingredients below follow the December 11, 2024 recipe guide. Each cookie also required 10–15 Essence of Dawning, depending on recipe discovery and whether Eva’s Holiday Oven had been masterworked. Bungie’s announcement called Nimbus’s Bake-Off cookie “Neomun-Cake,” while the full recipe guide labels it “Neomun-Pie”; the table retains the guide’s recipe name.

| Chitin Powder | Hive | Moon, Cosmodrome, Savathûn’s Throne World |

| Vex Milk | Vex | Nessus, Europa, Neomuna |
How to get action-based ingredients
These ingredients also dropped randomly, but their triggers were tied to combat methods, damage types, abilities, or Orb of Power generation. Drop rates were not guaranteed, so a specific number of kills cannot be promised.

How the Holiday Oven and Dawning materials worked
Bungie’s Dawning guide describes the general loop: gather ingredients and Dawning Essence by defeating enemies and completing activities, then combine them in Eva Levante’s Holiday Oven. The oven is available from the Quests tab. After baking a first gift, Eva offers bounties, upgrades, and Event Card challenges.
- Weekly bounties reward Essence of Dawning and Bright Dust.
- Daily bounties reward materials.
- Additional bounties reward Bright Dust and a random material.
- Dawning Spirit comes from Event Card challenges, Boons of Friendship, and delivering treats. Eva can exchange it for rewards, focusing, and upgrades.
- Gift boxes can come from delivering baked goods or completing specific Event Card challenges.
2024 Bake-Off weekly targets
Bungie’s December 5 announcement set three weekly community targets, beginning on December 10, 17, and 24. The community goal increased the drop chances for three exclusive emblems; Bungie said all three could drop throughout each week of the event.
