Christmas Cookies

We had a great time making Christmas sugar cookies last week.


We use (clean) paintbrushes and colored egg yolk to paint them before baking. It gives them a nice shiny top and I think it is easier for the kids than smooshy frosting.


I made a couple too using the leftovers from their dough. (please ignore the gross tray from my toaster oven.)




Is it sacrileges to bite the head off of an angel cookie?

Yum!

I love the egg yolk paint. What a great idea for this age!
They look so nice.
