Reindeer Holiday Cookies

Actually wanted to do more for this festive month but one thing lead to another and so instead here I am hoping I can post my first Xmas bento sometime soon!

In the meantime, will leave this with you...some reindeer cookies, made two ways. Hope you will give these a try as they are just so cute, aren't they? :)

Reindeer style no. 1


Personally prefer these flat ones as they were crunchier.


Here's how I made them, using a triangle food cup to shape the face, pretzels for the antlers, M&Ms for the nose and choc chips for the eyes.


Can use other cookie cutters for the face and if it is larger, you can actually use two pretzels as the antlers instead.


If you can get hold of green and red coloured M&Ms (should be easier in this season), they'll probably look a lot more festive :)

Reindeer style no. 2

Remember the 'Horlick Dogs'?


Yes??? Anyway, swap the Koko Crunch ears for antlers and there you have it.....snow buddies!!! Ha ha ha

Here's how I packed them to share with friends. Probably much prettier in a nice box but was too lazy to get any so re-used plastic boxes instead.




Btw, if you are wondering, used the Honey Cookies recipe found here. You can also use the Horlicks Dog cookies recipe if you wish.

.....Just in case I'm caught up an unable to blog as much as I wish, wishing everyone Merry Xmas, Happy New Year, Happy Holidays and basically the whole bag of warm wishes from MP, DH and I :)
