Tomorrow we have a holiday party/cookie exchange at Connor's school (how many times can I say how much I love Connor's school???) So this afternoon Connor and I will be holed up in the kitchen making Christmas Reindeer cookies. A perfect activity since its a rainy nasty day outside today. Connor really loved making them last year too. Sharing the recipe (they couldn't possibly be easier!) for my Mom friends.
What You Need
1 roll of pre-made sugar cookie dough
small pretzel rings
M & Ms
1 bell shaped cookie cutter
flour
baking sheet
What You Do
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Lightly flour the table, then roll the dough out to 1/4 inch thickness. Using the bell cookie cutter, cut out 12 bell cookies - this will vary depending on how thick you roll out the cookies (or if you don't have a cookie cutter just shape them by hand.) Lay the cookies, all the same way with bell facing you, onto the cookie sheet. Now, turn the cookie sheet around so that the bells are upside down. This is your reindeer face. Place a red M&M in his nose and one pretzel on each side of his head for the ears. (See photo)
Bake for 10 minutes or until very lightly browned around edges. Remove from oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 1-2 minutes. Remove to a cooling rack to finish cooling.
Yummmmmmmmmmmm
