I love frosted sugar cookies, especially if they are soft, chewy and frosted! I also love to bake these cookies when I have time. I may (okay, I do) have an obsession of collecting cookie cutters.
I have clear organization totes full of cookie cutters for every occasion. Here’s a glimpse of just my Christmas cookies cutters. It’s a collection ranging from clearance finds to hand-me-downs. My favorite cookie cutter shapes are the vintage metal Christmas tree cutters (as seen on final image above).
When Grandma Marlene was alive, she constantly was on the lookout for a wreath cookie cutter that had the center of the cutter holed out. Every time that I find a wreath cutter, I buy it and think about Marlene when I use them, rest her soul.
