Destiny 2: All Dawning Cookie Recipes and Ingredients 2022

The Dawning comes to Destiny 2 every December. This year is no different, and there are even more cookie recipes to bake in Eva Levante's new and improved oven. These treats give you rewards, acting as a currency to various vendors around the system. Gather enough ingredients and deliver enough cookies to the right people, and you'll be able to farm for the seasonal Cold Front SMG, Avalanche LMG, Glacioclasm Fusion Rifle, Zephyr Stasis Sword, and Stay Frosty Pulse Rifle. 

You will also need Dawning cookie recipes to complete Dawning weekly and repeatable bounties. These bounties grant Bright Dust and plenty of XP to level up your season pass. Let's look at the Dawning ingredients you'll need to make each of the recipes, then run through the recipes and their recipients.

Dawning Cookie Ingredients

There are three main ingredients you will need to make cookies in The Dawning: 

1. The main ingredient that drops from killing enemies on various worlds
2. A secondary ingredient that comes from getting kills and activating abilities
3. Essence of the Dawning, received from any activity throughout Destiny 2

Check out our guide for more on Essence of the Dawning. 

Main Ingredients

Every enemy type in Destiny 2 (except for other Guardians in the Crucible) has a corresponding ingredient that can drop when it's killed. These drops are low chance, so you will need to grind for enough to make all of the cookie recipes.

Below is a list of each enemy type and the ingredient they drop:

• The Vex: Vex Milk
• The Fallen: Ether Cane
• The Cabal: Cabal Oil
• The Hive: Chitin Powder
• The Taken: Taken Butter 
• The Scorn: Dark Ether Cane 

Every enemy type — boss, miniboss, ultra, red bar — has a chance to drop an ingredient of their given type as well.

Secondary Ingredients

Secondary ingredients drop based on the way you kill an enemy, not the enemy type itself. Secondary ingredients are more common. Below is an alphabetical list of each secondary ingredient and how you can acquire it.

Dawning Cookies

Dawning cookies travel light years and pass between dimensions to reach their intended recipients. 

Remember, you need 15 Essence of the Dawning to bake any of these cookies or only 10 Essence once you’ve discovered all the recipes and Masterworked the Oven. In the event you get a recipe wrong, you will receive Burnt Edge Transits, which you can take to Master Rahool the Cryptarch at the Tower to refund any spent Essence of the Dawning.

For Dawning 2022, you’ll see all the ingredients to any recipe you don’t already have, but we’ve listed them here for completeness.
