Christmas Cookies in July!







Easy and Light Cut Out Cookies

Earlier this week my daughter Rylee was all about Christmas. She really wanted to make gingerbread cookies. I usually will stop and make cookies with her but I was very busy and I also did not need the temptation of cookies in our house. I remembered reading an article somewhere about an easy and quick cookie using tortillas. So I quickly devised a recipe that would satisfy Rylee's desire to use her Christmas cookie cutters and my need for this project to last less than 30 minutes. Here is what you need:



  • corn tortillas(the white corn seem to taste the best)


  • melted butter or butter substitute(I use I can't believe its not butter spray.)


  • Sugar(raw sugar if you have it but regular will work)






  1. Preheat oven to 350.


  2. Spread tortillas out on cookie sheet and let child cut out desired shapes.


  3. Discard extra tortilla pieces.


  4. Have Child brush or spray cookie cut outs with butter.



  5. Sprinkle generously with sugar.(You could also used colored sugar if you have any left over from holidays.)


  6. Bake in oven 8-10 minutes or until light brown around edges.
