This cutout cookie has been in the family for years!...And it is the only recipe I use for my roll out Christmas cookies...but they can be used for any occasion you need a cutout recipe for....I have an abundance of cookie cutters for all occasions so I make these often...Back in the day I used to frost these with canned frosting then top with sprinkles...But I recently came across this glaze recipe that dries hard and is shiny (recipe included below)...which I love...then I top with sprinkles...So I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as my family does.....it isn't Christmas without them!!!
