Gingerbread Cookie Boxes

My girls and I like watching all of those mini cooking videos on Facebook. They are fun to watch, but we don’t find ourselves replicating many of the recipes. This video, however, is chalked full of holiday treats that are super cute and do-able! I asked them which one they’d like to make first and it was a unanimous, “Cookie Boxes!”. And so we made some!

We kept it quick and easy with a gingerbread cookie mix. I buy a bunch of these as soon as they hit the shelves in November. Gingerbread is my favorite and I think that this mix tastes just as good as homemade dough. I also bought a bottle of cookie icing at Joann’s with a 50% coupon.

For each box you’ll need two solid circles and two rings. Bake the cookies and let them cook completely.

Place a solid cookie on your work surface and add a ring of icing. Lay one of the ring cookies on top, add more icing, and the the next ring cookie.

Let the cookie boxes sit until the icing has had a chance to harden. Fill with M&Ms and add the lid (no icing necessary for the lid)!

We made four of these and used the extra cookie dough that was inside of the cookie rings to make other fun shapes.
