I wish I'd left one spare, just realised you can get a holly leaf if you turn 2 sideways and put red sweets at the head end. Oh well, next year lol!

  2. 2

    For the reindeer make a thick glaze with icing sugar and a little water - add some cocoa to colour it brown

  3. 3

    Turn the man upsides down so the legs are at the top

  4. 4

    Spread it into the shape shown and set a red or black sweet on the end for a nose

  5. 5

    Set aside to dry

  6. 6

    Make white glaze for the snowmen and spread it all over the cookie. This is great for covering cookies that got overbrowned at the edges!

  7. 7

    I like to dust with some shimmer powder to make them a bit sparkly

  8. 8

    Use choc chips, sugar pearls, raisins or anything you like to make the eyes, nose, mouth & buttons

  9. 9

    Pipe some leftover white icing on to make eyes on the reindeer and use a black icing pen to do the pupils, mouth and ear outlines

  10. 10

    Use some coloured icing or an icing pen to give scarf detail, add a hat if you like!
