    Now, these Stained Glass Christmas Cookies may look like they're something out of a fancy bakery, but they are actually quite simple to make - they aren't even that time consuming, to be quite honest. They are just so darned cute that they just SEEM really fancy!

    These cookies would be a great hostess gift, addition to your holiday potluck table, or as a gift for your neighbors. Homemade is always best, as they say!

    One thing to note: I used blue and purple Jolly Rancher candies. Initially I mixed them, thinking I'd make this cool stained glass feature, but the two colors just combined and made a brown color.

      Hi Jenn! These cookies are absolutely stunning!! I have already ordered and received the snowflakes set of cutters. I just have one question. How did you get the sparkling white sugar on the snowflake part of the cookie? Did you sprinkle on regular sugar before you baked? Or after? That touch really adds a lot to the cookie! Thanks for your help!! Beth
