Vickys Gingerbread Snowmen & Reindeer, Decorating Idea
I wish I'd left one spare, just realised you can get a holly leaf if you turn 2 sideways and put red sweets at the head end. Oh well, next year lol!
Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Here is my favourite gingerbread recipe - there are some other cookie decoration ideas within it too
* Step 2
For the reindeer make a thick glaze with icing sugar and a little water - add some cocoa to colour it brown
* Step 3
Turn the man upsides down so the legs are at the top
* Step 4
Spread it into the shape shown and set a red or black sweet on the end for a nose
* Step 6
Make white glaze for the snowmen and spread it all over the cookie. This is great for covering cookies that got overbrowned at the edges!
* Step 7
I like to dust with some shimmer powder to make them a bit sparkly
* Step 8
Use choc chips, sugar pearls, raisins or anything you like to make the eyes, nose, mouth & buttons
* Step 9
Pipe some leftover white icing on to make eyes on the reindeer and use a black icing pen to do the pupils, mouth and ear outlines
* Step 10
Use some coloured icing or an icing pen to give scarf detail, add a hat if you like!
* Step 11
Let dry again and they're done!
