Christmas Cookies

I was recently at Sprout's and came across dye-free food coloring and dye-free sprinkles. I was pretty excited so I bought them because now we can make cut-out cookies that Max can eat. He was also pretty excited about it when I got home. We spent Sunday afternoon baking and decorating cookies. This was also my first time making homemade buttercream frosting. I am not a baker and never have been because I am not a sweets person, but I wanted to give Max color options for frosting that could be piped on because my Ziploc baggies needed to be put to good use. Because the dye is colored with food ingredients versus chemicals the colors were dull, but that's ok nobody cared. It was a lot of fun to make and Max enjoyed eating a lot of them.










With all the dye-free food coloring excitement I forgot about making the beloved Dove cookies. I want to tackle that recipe this weekend, but of course the gluten free version.
