Cinnamon Dough Ornaments

A richly scented ornamental cookie. These would be fabulous decorating a christmas tree, but don't try to eat them!

1 cup ground cinnamon
4 tablespoons white glue
3/4 to 1 cup water

Mix cinnamon and glue. Gradually add the water. Stir until a ball of dough forms. Roll out with rolling pin 1/4 inch thick and cut with cookie cutters. Poke a hole and let dry at room temperature for 1 to 2 days, turning over every 6-8 hours. If desired, decorate with white Royal Icing. Hang with ribbon and enjoy the fragrance!

Note: Yield depends on how big your cookie cutters are.

AWESOME craft!!! My children (ages 2 & 5)absolutely loved doing this project. It's a great way to use up old spices. I would suggest using mostly glue and only moisten using a teaspoon of water at a time. Knead dough in between. five stars
