Steps

  •

    Heat oven to 375°F (190°C) for shiny metal baking sheet or 350°F (180°C) for dark or non-stick baking sheet. Stir cookie mix, melted butter and egg in medium bowl until soft dough forms.

    Drop dough by rounded teaspoonfuls 3 -inches (7.5 cm) apart onto ungreased baking sheet. Flatten drops of dough until 1/4-inch (6 mm) thick and 2-inches (5 cm) across.

Expert Tips

  • Tip 1
    Tip: Remember that assembly lines can make tasks go faster. Line up your kitchen helpers. One person frosts cookies, the next adds the licorice for the hat, and the third person adds the raisins and cinnamon candies. Another time, let each person be as creative as they want with their own set of cookies, frosting and trimmings.
