Method

  1. Mix icing sugar with peppermint extract and enough water to make a thick icing. Spread the icing over cookies and create a border around the edges using sweets and sprinkles. Leave for 10 mins for the icing to set. Then, using an icing pen, write a guest's name in the centre of each cookie. When the icing is dry, wrap in cellophane and tie up with a pretty ribbon.

    Only potential problem is if you lay them out for kids before a meal they'll want to eat them first!!

    But then to a child it dosn't matter what order they eat their meal does it? As long as they enjoy it, that's what is important.

    This can be done with any biscuit. Today we stuck 2 digestives together with choc/hazelnut spread then decorated with whatever was in the cupboard. Messy but fun, a great laugh.
