Gingerbread Cookies - My Very Favorite

What is your very favorite kind of cookie? Mine is gingerbread. I am CRAZY over gingerbread. I love the smell of gingerbread cookies as they cool after baking and while they are waiting to be decorated. Yum. I love gingerbread so much that I decided that I need some special gingerbread cookie cutters of my own design. These are not actually gingerbread dough, but I had fun making these.

 I started with a gingerbread house. I have a few gingerbread house cookie cutters, but this is exactly the one I wanted and I'm very happy with it. You can get one HERE


Then I made Ginny the Gingerbread Girl with bow and scarf. I love her. Cookie cutter available HERE


 and lastly I made Giselle the Gingerbread girl with apron and bow. Cookie cutter available HERE


 My son and his girlfriend had a wonderful time making a gingerbread house over the holidays.


 Then after the gingerbread house, they decided to try out decorated cookies and ended up having a lot of fun with my extra icing colors.
 They did a great job and the cookies were super yummy!


This is an old photo of Abigail, but it was so cute with these cookies that I couldn't resist

So tell me, what is your FAVORITE type of cookie?

    1. Thankfully I don't like chocolate. It's my one saving grace away from sweets ;-) My son is a freak over gingerbread like me, but his very favorite is mint-chocolate chip decorated cookies. He flips over those. We might have to make some this summer :-)

    5. All I'm going to say to that is "ewwwww". That sounds like too many flavors in one cookie to me Missa Anne. You're a funny funny girl. I'm making oatmeal scotchies today. Yum.
