Nativity Cookies

 I have been wanting to do this for several years.  Gingerbread Nativity Cookies.  I bought a pkg of nativity cookie cutters...and I lost them.  Finally, this year, after going through my garage-I bought a different set on Amazon.  Oh well.

 I used this gingerbread recipe-they are soooo good.  Soft and flavorful.  And I used this icing recipe.

 I iced the cookies by simply creating a border, letting it harden.  I added about 1/2 T to the rest of the icing and flooded the cookies and then let them dry.

 I packaged them up individually and put them in boxes with crinkle paper with a star ornament on the outside.
