Sparkling Holiday Cupcake Cookie Toppers

• You can use any cookie recipe you like to make the cookies, here are   few  of my favorites. 
• Be creative when it comes to shapes, you can make little trees, little stars, gingerbread man, little snowflakes, holly leaf or a bell.Possibilities are endless.
• When making cookie toppers on a stick, make sure you roll the dough out thicker than usual so you can insert the stick into the cookie.
• Now there are 2 ways to do this, you can insert the sitkc before you bake the cookie or some people do it right after they bake the cookies.  I insert the stick before I bake the cookies.
• Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes then carefully transport the cookies onto a cooling rack and cool completely before icing.
• Ice the cookie with royal icing and immediately followed by applying sparkling sanding sugar.
• Let the icing dry.
• Use cookies as cupcake toppers or enjoy them alone.
