Christmas Cookies for Church



There is an organization at the church we go to that is going to send cookies to the American troops and so we were all asked to bring our favorite cookies there this morning.
This is what I took and I hope they will like them as much as I do.



Sugar Powdered Crescents
Chocolate Cookies
Lemon Sugar Cookies

These are the varieties of icing and sprinkles I used:



I made the crescents first because they weren't as time consuming.


Here I only had part of them on display so I would have a better image of what I am working with.



And here are sections of the counter you see above.






And 2 more batches coming out of the oven...



And after I baked everything and they cooled and hardened, I began decorating.

Candy cane shaped cookies and wreaths !


After a while they began to change their appearance...




And here are the ones with sprinkles:


After a few hours they were on display again, but this time looking a lot different...



The counter was full !

  1. what a great idea... Good for those kind folks, hopefully with the icing, they will travel well, but even if it gets there as crumbs, they will be devoured... This is terrific of you all

  2. Sunt minunate, Cat. M-a bucurat asa mult sa le vad, parca ar trebui sa ajunga la mine. :) Azi toata ziua am ascultaat colinde si am facut tot felul de maruntisuri pentru decorat casa pentru Craciun. Acum am terminat ( la mine e 03:46 ) si am aruncat o privie pe aici inainte de culcare. Prajiturile tale au venit ca o surpriza de sfarsit de zi. :)
    Sper ca cei carora le sunt destinate sa se bucure la fel de mult.
