Ingredients

Make It

Step 1

Cover 14 x 17-inch piece of cardboard in foil or parchment paper or have large flat platter available.

Step 4

Spread heaping teaspoons of frosting on flat sides of cookies.

Step 5

Arrange 15 cookies on the prepared cardboard or platter in a 12-inch circle to form outer ring of wreath.

Step 6

Arrange 12 cookies inside the outer ring of cookies, forming inside ring of wreath. Adhered cookies can be moved to create more space.

Step 8

Decorate with remaining frosting, morsels, candies, sprinkles and sugars as desired. Attach bow to top of wreath.

TIPS:

• For easier decorating, 1 cup of icing can be spooned into resealable, heavy-duty plastic bag; seal. Cut small corner of bag. Squeeze bag to use. Fill with additional icing as needed. Store any leftover icing covered in refrigerator for up to 30 days. • Cookies can also be made into a tree, initials or any other shape desired.
