DELICIOUSLY ADORABLE GNOME COOKIES RECIPE

Everything about these Gnome cookies makes me happy and I can’t wait to bite off their cute little heads over and over again. (Don’t judge – you’ll be doing it, too!) Not only are they crazy cute, but they’re crazy good, too! If you love decorated Christmas cookies, you’ll love these Snowman Cookies too! They are simple to make and so fun to decorate.

Grab your flour and baking powder and whisk the two together in a separate bowl. Combine the mixture with the sugar/butter mixture by doing so in 1/3 increments.

After working it, roll the dough to 1/4 inch thick. (no less than that or the cookies will break) Use your gnome cookie cutter and start to cut out your cookies.

Once done, move the entire parchment paper with the cookies on it to your cookie sheet. Bake your cookies in the oven for 10 minutes. Keep in mind that they will not brown at all so make certain to just pull them out at the 10-minute mark.

Leaving the cookies on the parchment paper, you'll want to transfer them to a rack to cool. (They have to be completely cool to frost.)
