No-Bake Cinnamon Applesauce Ornaments

 

Ingredients:

1 cup Applesauce

1 ⅓-1/2 cup ground cinnamon

one squirt Elmers Glue ( you don't have to add it but I did)

Parchment paper

Drinking straw (or toothpick)

Ribbon or string (for hanging the ornament)

Directions:

Place applesauce, cinnamon and squirt of glue into a mixing bowl. Mix the applesauce, cinnamon and glue into a dough using a spoon.

Use the rolling pin to roll the dough out to ¼ inch thick. 

Use your Christmas cookie cutters to cut out your Cinnamon Applesauce Ornaments. Fit as many as you can on the rolled-out dough.

Pull the extra dough away from the cut out ornaments and then lift them onto the cookie sheet with your fingers or a thin spatula.

Now is the time to make holes in the top of the ornaments so you can add a ribbon. I used the end of a drinking straw to make the holes in mine. 

You can let your ornaments air dry on the cookie sheet for about two days .

If you like the look of the plain ornament, go ahead, and tie a ribbon or string in the hole and you are done.

I made these for the ladies at recipe exchange and two of the cashiers at Walmart and Winn Dixie. The lady above is Sue, she's Christian's mom. Now I have both mother and daughter on the blog!

I let them dry in the extra bedroom and that room smells SO GOOD!
