Gnome Cookies

So we came to the conclusion we didn’t want to risk it and decided not to have any more children.

What we should have done was given our fears to God. We should have trusted Him and continued to grow our family, but we didn’t.

God knows I need my heart filled to the brim with the chaos, love, and joy children bring. He knew I would regret the decision, but He worked things together for good as He promised and He has filled my life with other people’s children!

God provides. I like to call his timing procrastination when I am being impatient, but it’s truly perfect timing.

These Gnome Cookie Cups are a fun Christmas treat to make with your kids! If you are looking for more ideas to fill a platter full, make sure you check out this super popular list of 20 No Bake Christmas Treats for Kids , too!

How to Make Gnome Cookie Cups

Make a batch of 2-Ingredient Peanut Butter Cup Cookies . Let cool.

Find the 12 best looking strawberries in the container and cut the stems out, making the smallest hole possible. Set aside.

Place desired amount of icing in a piping bag. (Or you could use a sandwich bag with a small corner cut off.)

Pipe the frosting over the top of the cookie cups.

Place a strawberry on top of the icing.

Pipe a beard starting at the bottom of the strawberry, just above the top of the cookie, and pipe down just before the bottom of the cookie cup.

Place a red M&M into the icing for his nose.

Repeat until all gnomes are made.

Cookie Cups – You do not have to use the cookie cups suggested in the recipe. You can easily swap those for store bought brownie bites, or anything else you find similarly shaped!

Nose – You can use just about any round shaped candy for the nose. I’ve even seen someone use Reese’s Puffs Cereal!

Strawberry Stem – Make sure to cut the smallest hole possible out of the strawberry stem. If you slice the entire strawberry top off, they will get juicy and it will run into the frosting and look messy.
