Baking Christmas Cookies

As we do every year since I was a kid, we used my grandmother's Holly Wreath cookie recipe to make cookie press Christmas cookies. Tonight was a good time to take a break from all the Christmas craziness and enjoy this activity with the kids. Alex was very excited about using the "guns" from Williams and Sonoma that Aunt Jill bought me for my birthday a few years ago. The kids both enjoyed adding the sprinkles and other decorations. The cookies turned out delicious, but we did not make enough extra to share with our friends and family. We will have to do some more baking later this week!
