When do cookies come in flocks? When they are Sheep Cookies of course! No, no....not made of mutton. These are regular sugar cookies in the shape of sheep.
They are part of a gift for the exchange at the Spinners and Weavers Guild Christmas lunch tomorrow. The other part of the gift was purchased earlier.
The candied citron bits are to add a bit more of a festive touch......in case the recipient decides to pawn them off on holiday guests.
They're gorgeous! I wish I had the time/inclination/room/talent to bake.
ReplyDeleteWhat awesome looking cookies!! Where on earth did you find a sheep shaped cookie cutter? I just love it.
ReplyDeleteYou can buy the cookie cutter on the internet. It's about $4 American with a $6 shipping charge. I borrowed the one I used from a spinning friend.
ReplyDeleteOh My! Those cookies look way too good!! I haven't made iced cookies like that since high school, when I could still actually consume them without a problem, haha! Wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThose cookies are fabulous!! My grands would love them. (note to self: find a sheep cookie cutter)
ReplyDeleteWeird. I was baking cookies yesterday (in the shape of squirrels, for a friend), and my mum took the solitary sheep I had cut out and tried to frost it to make it look like wool.
ReplyDeleteYours are a lot better.
Those are absolutely ADORABLE!
