Yesterday was spent decorating sugar cookies that I baked Saturday.
I used royal icing and flooded them like Sarah's wedding cookie favors. It is a bit more time consuming but they aren't overwhelmingly sweet this way.
Snowmen, Christmas trees, snowflakes, mittens, bells, stars and candy canes. I remembered at the last minute I had a gingerbread house cookie cutter and was only able to cut one. Maybe next year.
I also made cinnamon rolls and put in the freezer for Christmas morning. I plan to take a couple of pans to Courtney tomorrow at choir practice.
I waited till Tim was home when I made a batch of caramel corn so he could stir. I plan to make at least one more batch tonight, maybe two. I am giving it as gifts and of course we want some to munch on.
I finished decorating the cookies first thing this morning even before coffee and my Bible.
The only other thing I plan to make for gifts is Amish White Bread. I will bake four loaves tomorrow.
I have been in the kitchen a lot less this year so it felt good to spend the day preparing goodies. Now, to deliver on Wednesday evening.
Here are the recipes I used. Sugar cookies with this icing , Pioneer Woman's Cinnamon Rolls with this icing and this easy delicious recipe for the caramel corn.
