Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, salt, and ground cinnamon. Use a whisk to ensure the ingredients are thoroughly mixed.
-
Slowly pour the water into the dry ingredients, stirring continuously. As the dough starts to come together, use your hands to knead it until it forms a smooth, pliable ball. If the dough is too sticky, add a sprinkle of flour until it reaches the right consistency.
-
On a flat, floured surface, roll out the dough to a thickness of around 1/4 inch using a rolling pin. Ensure the dough is evenly flattened to maintain consistent baking.
-
Use a variety of cookie cutters to cut out shapes from the dough. To create ornaments, use a drinking straw to punch a hole at the top of each shape for threading twine later.
-
Preheat the oven to 250°F (120°C). Place the cookie shapes on a lined baking sheet and bake for approximately 1-2 hours, depending on the thickness of the dough. The ornaments should be thoroughly dried and firm to the touch but not browned.
-
Once the ornaments are fully cooled, decorate as desired with acrylic paint, glitter glue, or leave plain. Allow any decorations to dry completely before moving on.
-
Cut pieces of twine or ribbon to your desired length for hanging the ornaments. Thread the twine through the holes in the ornaments and tie a knot at the top for hanging.
-
Display your Cinnamon Cookie Ornament Dough creations on the tree, garlands, or tied to gifts.
