Does December have you dreaming of cookies like it does me? Actually, I dream those dreams all year long, but especially at Christmastime.
Here are a few cookies from Christmases past to get your cookie mojo flowing.
{For tutorials on each design, just click the links or pictures.}
Elf on the Shelf Cookies...
...I didn't realize until recently that there is a big split in America. Forget red state/blue state. It's pro-elf/anti-elf. Kiddo is too old for the elf, but I have to come down on the pro-elf side...if only for the cookies.
Charlie Brown Christmas...
...these are an easy way to capture the Peanuts characters without having to pipe faces.
Baa Humbug...
...get it?
Christmas Cottages...
...I love anything dotty and these make great treats for the neighbors!
Dotty Winter Trees...
...sanding sugar or not, these trees are perfect throughout winter. (And again with the dots.)
Pink & Red Christmas Ornaments...
...pink & red is one of my favorite color combinations. Ornament cookie cutters are fantastic to have in your collection. Make them any color, personalize them...the possibilities are endless.
Peppermint Candy Cookies...
...inspired by Martha, so simple and fun to make.
I'm cooking up a few new ideas for this month as well.
Are you decorating cookies this Christmas?

Believe it or not, yesterday, one of the church ladies invited us to her house for a cookie decorating party. It's in two weeks, and I volunteered to bring cookies and icing. Imagine my surprise when I arrived here this morning. Thank you for all your creative and brilliant ideas. I'm thinking your next cookie book should be a Christmas one. :)
ReplyDeleteOh, and my daughter Haley is coming and is excited to actually decorate cookies.
ReplyDeleteLove the little Elf cookies! I'm totally pro Elf!
ReplyDeleteI'm 'pro-cookie'!! Every single one of your cookies are just too cute! I love them all.
ReplyDeleteI love ALL your Christmas cookie ideas! I'll have to do the Elf cookies one of these years, since our elf "Jingle" is pretty popular at my house. =) I'm planning on making some simple stocking cookies for everyone this year. Maybe with the marbling technique to make them look knit? I love christmas cookies!!
ReplyDeleteThese are all beautiful! I love those little elves.
ReplyDeletelove them all, wish I actually had time to decorate cookies this year, so many great ideas!

ReplyDeleteI love them ALL, but the Elf cookies are my favorite. My daughter is crazy about our elf (named "Elfie"), so I know she would love to have these cookies.
ReplyDeleteso adorable-- i heart the elf on a shelf!
ReplyDeleteYou are so,so wonderfully talented! My little girls are looking at these with me going bananas for the elves!
ReplyDeleteThese Christmas cookies are so amazing! I saw the Elf and squeeled, band scrolled down to see the Baa humbug and fell in love. Hubby was Scrooge in the first play he invited me to see him in. I always tease him that I married Scrooge. Thanks for the smiles.
ReplyDeleteAll those cookies look delish, Bridget! YUM! :)
ReplyDeleteI am decorating cookies for Christmas but I'm afraid mine won't be as creative or cute as yours!
ReplyDeleteBridget, love your creative cookies, so pretty. I belong to a group of lady pilots here in Houston. Do you know how I could make some cookies in the shapes of airplanes? Where do you find your cookie cutters (like the elf)? Thank you for any ideas you could send our way.
ReplyDeleteThe touches of humor and whimsy are what make your cookie designs so special!
ReplyDeleteLove all of these recipes!
ReplyDeleteI'm the ghost of Christmas past in a play so the title caught my attention!
Bridget, all I can say you make the cutest cookies eeeeevvvveeeer! I wish I was going to have enough time to make them all. I hoping for time to make at least two or three! Yummy too!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to make some Christmas cookies with royal icing! I have been looking forward to making cookies like these for sometime now!
ReplyDeleteOh, and I love me my FAT PANTS. :)
My favorite were the Charlie Brown set! So fun!
