I saw Paula Deen do these on her cookie swap and was dying to try them. They are peppermint pinwheel cookies. How cute did they turn out! I think I might take some to the bake sale at Slade's school, but they are almost too cute to eat! These are the days I really enjoy being at home. I would never be able to do these teaching school with all the Christmas hysteria and trying to get papers graded and grades entered. I really don't have time now, but I did it anyways. Still have dirty towels to wash and the kitchen is a wreck, oh well!
They are basically a peppermint flavored butter sugar cookie. I hope they stay somewhat soft in the packaging. It was a little experimental seeing that I don't do much with actual dough that you roll out. I wasn't sure how long to cook them and how thick to cut them. I DVRed the show and watched it before I baked them this morning.
I just used my extra scrapbooking ribbon and individually wrapped the rest. I might do these for Slade's birthday party favors-maybe. They were quite time consuming. Jerilyn, aren't you proud?!?
Finley liked the results.
Second batch.
I really rolled them and chilled for two hours, really! Actually I did a double batch, but did them individually.
This is what it looks like when you have two babies to help you in a very small kitchen. I was standing in front of the dishwasher. Tight squeeze. Luckily I'm very thin to be able to fit in that spot.
After school steam releasing. Kaleb and Slade (Slade is a computer hog and looks like a giant)
Two gals, one with alot more hair than the other. Both love Mickey and Minnie Mouse. Will probably have some really good girl fights in the future, but cute as can be now. Finley and Emma.
