The easy part was rolling and cutting (although I'd like to have made them closer to 4mm rather than 7mm so they would have gotten a little more firm quicker). When it came to decorating I was stumped having never decorated xmas biscuits except with my nanna and opa (these consisted of a basic white icing with a smidge of lemon, and sprinkles on top - which are delicious, just not, well I guess 'elegant' for lack of a better word). So I started researching what to put on the biscuits, I could so colored sprinkles, colored icing, I could add candy, do some serious piping decorations... I just got lazy and made some royal icing and piped on a scarf, some buttons and a hat.
I really need to work on my piping skills.

How cute. They look nice. :)
These are absolutely adorable.
These look great! Much better than my recent first attempt at piping onto cookies!
Aw.. these are cute! I have no piping skills either, but I blame it on the fact that I am left handed. What does that have to do with piping? Who knows, but its the excuse I use for my terrible handwriting as well. :)
