Holiday Cookies - Gingerbread


Being a smalltown girl I was raised that you show your holiday love by baking treats!! This year I tried to make traditional Gingerbread men cookies. I love to bake, although it doesn't always turn out as I would like, I keep on trying. To my suprise this recipe from a baking whiz friend turned out amazing!!! To see her creations check out: http://www.wix.com/julesbakescakes/dessertcreations

You can find the recipe here (it also includes a yummy icing recipe for decorating the cookies): http://www.joyofbaking.com/GingerbreadMen.html

If you need any help getting into the holiday spriit, you shoudl give it a try. I made them with my 2 year old son who loved helping out & then my husband helped me decorate them.... opps I promised him I'd say it was my son who decorated them!

  1. I don't think I gave you that recipe did I? If so please retract the 'baking whiz' comment lol. You are the baking whiz with wonderfully decadent treats. I am merely a cake decorator who finds great recipes on the internet and burns things often lol.
