Chipper Confections

My mum and I have been using and baking this exact butter biscuit recipe ever since I was born. Usually we just leave them plain with some egg wash and chopped nuts on top. I decided on a simple snowflake design for my entry, to go with our classic and simple butter biscuits.

I did my best to make a snowman snowglobe sugar cookie!

(and yes I did manage to punch my thumb right into the hat .02 seconds before I got a picture)

Hopefully Santa’s taste buds are a little off because I’m not too sure how tasty this cookie would be.. ​

These are my Christmas cookies! I used double stuff Oreo’s, vegan white chocolate and fondant icing

 

[digimon]

first time baking gingerbread cookies (usually store bought ones from a box are the ones i get) the icing was a very interesting medium to work with but i hope it's easy to see my bestie puck in his santa hat

Here's my Santa entry! To be honest this was the one I was dreading as I don't usually bake/decorate cookie, but really enjoyed it when I started. I discovered I didn't have any white icing for his beard/eyebrows. I tried first spreading yellow icing underneath so that I could sprinkle some sugar and hoped it would stick to it. However, it didn't work out how I hoped! I decided he would have a snowflake beard as it's so cold in the UK.

For mine, I baked a recipe for very hard biscuits. They are the same type, recipe, and ingredients that were given out to soldiers during the Civil War. During Christmas in the war, when both armies were stationed far from the grueling battles, these would be rationed to all and would be enjoyed with a cup of coffee.

You don't want to eat them dry otherwise you might break a tooth! They are best soaked in coffee. It helps to soften and also sweeten them. So, if Santa has you on his naughty list, give him a treat he will never forget. His dentist bill will never be higher and you won't be back on the nice list.

7 biscuits are in this picture. 5 are covered with vanilla icing, raisins as the mouth/eyes, a carrot for the nose, and 1 grape cut in half for the rosy cheeks. I tweaked the recipe slightly from the original so that its more loosely based off of a sugar cookie.

In the spoiler is proof of the biscuits I made. Take a look at their amateurish shapes. They're saying 'Why did you do it? What would possess you? Were you born with a cold heart, or did you chill the warmth from it in some merciless deep freeze?
