Christmas Snowflake Stained Glass Cookies Recipe
Now, these stained glass cookies may look like they’re something out of a fancy bakery, but they are actually quite simple to make – they aren’t even that time consuming, to be quite honest. They are just so darned cute that they just SEEM really fancy! These cookies would be a great hostess gift, addition to your holiday potluck table, or as a gift for your neighbors. Homemade is always best, as they say!
One thing to note: I used blue and purple Jolly Rancher candies. Initially I mixed them, thinking I’d make this cool stained glass feature, but the two colors just combined and made a brown color.
