Christmas Cookies

We made a few quick Christmas cookies today. We didn’t have a lot of time but wanted to make a few. Snowflakes seem appropriate with our current bad weather happening.

Sugar cookies with royal icing always seem to be so much work. By the time we are done, I’m never really sure if they are worth it. But we seem to keep doing it. Haha.

We just picked two. Christmas trees and snowflakes.

I didn’t realize it until I looked at this picture, that the second tree on the bottom doesn’t have sprinkles! The only one cookie I forgot to sprinkle. I should probably eat that one!

Normally we pipe all the frosting on, but we just used a butter knife to spread it on this time. Needed to speed things up today.

Even in a hurry, they turned out pretty enough.

And here is our tree.
