    Christmas Cookie Ornaments are the perfect fun and easy treat to bring to any party or gathering this Christmas season. Ornament Cookies-- just as fun to make as they are to eat.

    Christmas ornament cookies with m&ms and licorice deccorationsHey hey hey! Who is in the mood for a super festive and easy Christmas treat idea? We are all about fun and easy over at the Bailey house, and these Christmas ornament cookies are always a huge hit.

    The best part about them is you can totally start with a Swig Sugar Cookie box mix or your favorite store bought sugar cookies if you don't want to make your own. We know how busy the holidays can be. If you do want to be an over-achiever and make your own, this is our favorite fool proof Sugar Cookie Recipe. 

    Ornament Cookies

    If you love Christmas cookies as much as we do you definitely need to check out our other fan favorites like our soft and chewy gingersnaps, our white chocolate covered Oreos or our easy and delicious Saltine Toffee. 

    Several sugar cookies decorated like ornaments on Christmas napkins.Seriously though how cute are these little babies? My kids love helping every step of the way, but especially the decorating. If you made the sugar cookies and just brought supplies they would be a super fun Christmas class activity that can double as a treat (the best kind, obviously).

    Christmas Cookie Ornaments

    First things first we need to gather our ingredients. 

    You will need: 

    • Sugar Cookies
    • Frosting of Choice
    • Toothpicks
    • Rolos
    • Other Candy to Decorate With

    A photo of the ingredients needed to make ornament cookies.After you've made and frosted your cookies you simple attach a rolo to the top of each "ornament" using a toothpick. You can break the toothpicks in half if that is easier so they are shorter. 

    Then simply decorate your cookie ornaments to your hearts desire.
