This week's Three Ingredient Thursday isn't for anything you can eat, but it is for something that sure smells good and is very Christmassy.
Three Ingredient Cinnamon Christmas Ornaments:
1. 1 Cup Applesauce
2. 1 Cup Cinnamon (bulk powder)
3. 2. Tablespoons tacky glue
Knead ingredients until smooth and consistent ball has formed. Sprinkle cinnamon on countertop and roll out dough to 1/4 to 1/2 inch thickness. (Thicker ornaments are sturdier but take longer to dry.) Cut out shapes with cookie cutters. Use toothpick to make a hole for ribbon so you can hang them up later. Allow them to air dry completely on wax paper (24-48 hrs.) Turn them as needed if they start to cur. Sprinkle fine glitter or use puff paint for a nice effect. They will smell great for years!

How interesting! Sounds like a fun activity to do with the kids!
ReplyDeleteMy girls made ornaments with this on ornament night at school. Cute ornaments and the smell is great!
ReplyDeleteI did these a few years when my girls were younger. We still hang some on the tree.
ReplyDeleteBut how do I knead applesauce? LOL Sounds pretty cool. I think we made these when I was a kid.
ReplyDeleteOooh, the kids would love that! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a lot of fun for the kiddos! Thanks, Erica.
ReplyDeleteAside from the glue, they look really tasty! LOL, I'm cracking myself up. What a fun project :-)
