Betty Crocker's Holiday Baking - Mommy's Fabulous Finds

Disclosure: This post is brought to you by Betty Crocker. All opinions are my own.

I have always loved baking but now that I have children of my own, I LOVE baking, especially around the holidays. Every year for Christmas we always decorate sugar cookies and gingerbread men, it’s something I did as a child and a trend that I have carried on with my children. We usually bake a couple different batches of sugar cookies throughout December, but this year was a little hectic with snow and ice storms and traveling out of state for Christmas so we didn’t get all the baking done that we planned. Even now that Christmas is over that doesn’t stop the fun of baking and decorating cookies. With all of the snow we’ve gotten the past week the boys and I decided to use star cookie cutter and make some snowflake sugar cookies.

Do you decorate sugar cookies every year? Or have another holiday trend?
