This morning we were up early to continue working on our Christmas cookie making. This morning we started out with making Gingerbread boys and girls. The kids and I had so much fun rolling, cutting, and baking them but of course the best part of all is the decorating. I decided to try something a little different this year I put the Royal Icing in a squeeze bottle to make it easier for the kids to handle and it works like a charm. Wilton makes them and you can pick them up any place they sell cake making supplies. Next we are going to do traditional sugar cookie cut-outs and get those frosted up. So far this is what we have completed.

We have a few more kinds to make and then I am going to attempt to make traditional German Stollen. It's one of Ole's Christmas favorites so I think it will be the perfect treat to have with our Christmas dinner tomorrow.
