Any good ideas please people? I can only think of xmas shaped biscuits other than the cake, mince pies etc which would be so dissappointing for them as they just wouldnt like them. It's for a class so simple is best
Thanks v much!

Chocolate Reindeer Cookies
1 cup butter, softened
1-1/2 cups sugar
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 teaspoons cream of tartar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
3-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
72 small pretzel twists
72 candy-coated milk chocolate pieces
36 small red gum drops
In a large mixing bowl beat butter with an electric mixer on medium to high speed for 30 seconds. Add sugar, cocoa powder, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt. Beat until combined, scraping sides of bowl occasionally. Beat in eggs and vanilla until combined. Beat in as much of the flour as you can with the mixer. Using a wooden spoon, stir in any remaining flour.
Divide dough into 6 equal portions. Wrap portions in waxed paper or plastic wrap. Chill for 3 hours or until dough is easy to handle.
On a lightly floured surface, roll each dough portion into a circle 6 inches in diameter. Using a knife, cut each circle into 6 wedges. Place wedges 2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet.
For antlers, on each triangle lightly press a pretzel into the upper corners. Press in chocolate pieces for eyes. For a nose, press a red gumdrop into the dough triangle about 1/2 inch from the point.
Bake in a 375° F oven for 7 to 9 minutes or until edges are firm. Do not overbake. Cool on cookie sheet for 1 minute. Transfer cookies to a wire rack; cool.

cookies, you don't even need to shape them but if you do that's great. Some sugar cookies with red or green sprinkles. you can frost some and then do the sprinkles if you want to get a little fancy. I think it is Pillsbury that has the picks on the inside of the cookies too.

Make cupcakes and let them decorate them.
Use white frosting and have all the fixins of Christmas colors.
Such as:
Sprinkels~ red, green
M&M's
Just look in the cake isle and then the candy isle, there are tons of stuff to put on them and they will have doing it.
