Christmas Cookie Advent (Countdown)
I usually undercook my cookies just a bit so that they are nice and soft. Not this time around. I cooked mine a minute over what the package said and let them sit on the pan until they were completely cool. After all, the last few cookies will be hanging for 3 weeks. So I wanted to get some of the moisture out of them. Stale cookies are better than moldy cookies.
Line up the cookies (front side down). Then carefully fold the sides over to the center, overlapping if necessary. I did 4 cookies at a time and worked my way to the top.
Tie a bow between every cookie with baker’s twine.
