Thanksgiving Cookies

With the holidays sneaking up on me, I haven’t had much time to post.  Ok, that is a lie – it has nothing to do with the holidays – I’ve simply been busy with other projects.    But regardless of my excuse, the holidays are right around the corner…

I posted these Thanksgiving cookies because they came out so darn cute.  I used a basic sugar cookie recipe, cutting them out in the shapes of leaves and acorns.  I made several batches of colored icing in red, orange, yellow, green and two shades of brown.  Very fall appropriate colors. 

After icing the Thanksgiving cookies, I sprinkled color cordinating sanding sugars on the top – very pretty.   You can get these sanding sugars at your local craft store.

The cookies sparkled in the sun and were completely gobbled up before the party was over.
