“Happiness is a plate of chocolate snowflakes... and someone you love to help you eat them.” Kasha

I’m fascinated (aka obsessed) with snowflake cutout cookies and this is a quick-and-easy way to decorate them when I have no time or have run out of “cookie decorating steam.” Yes, there are occasions when even I don’t want to spend all day decorating cookies. Sometimes I want (or need) to bake, decorate and package my cookies all on the same day.

“To appreciate the beauty of a snowflake it is necessary to stand out in the cold.” Aristotle

I love to make these shortbread angel cookies at Christmas time and give them to “my special people.” This year I made all kinds of shapes and sizes of angels, and it seemed so fitting because my “angels” come in all different shapes and sizes, too! You know who you are...you have an angel cookie to remind you that I treasure your friendship.
