Today is day 12 of the 12 Days of Christmas over on Sweet Sugar Belle. Callye asked me to participate in a special cookie collection celebrating the 12 days of Christmas (following the classic song). I chose 12 drummers drumming… and this is what I came up with.
Earlier this year I made some pumpkin cookies with candy inside and I’ve been wanting to play with the idea for other holidays. I thought a drum would be the perfect shape to fill with candy. I started with my gingerbread cookie recipe, covered the tops with royal icing, added some bakers twine and gold dragees, and filled them with mini M&M’s. I think they turned out pretty cute!
Head on over to Sweet Sugar Belle for the full tutorial on these fun cookies.
