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

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

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

  5. Set aside to dry

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

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

  10. 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
