Christina's Notes
- Edible Antlers: Feel free to use pretzels for the antlers, then the cookie will be completely edible.
- Different Cookies: Maybe your family doesn't love gingersnaps, use whatever kind of cookie you like.
- Different Frosting: You could try a frosting with cinnamon, brown sugar, vanilla, chocolate... whatever you like!
- Sugar Cookie: Use a sugar cookie dipped in chocolate for the base. Then stick the candies directly to the chocolate before it sets.
- Smaller Version: Try using an oreo cookie for the base of your reindeer cookie and stick the antlers into the filling.
