These Eggless Nutella Gingerbread Men cookies are made because of a cute demand from my son. I’m glad he made this demand as these cookies are crispy, flaky, delicious and any nutella lover like me will love them πŸ™‚ .. My love for nutella never ends and I had to make some nutella cookies for this Christmas as well. I have already shared nutella swirl cookies on my blog and I was earlier thinking of baking them for this Christmas season too. I’m glad I tried something different and happy with these nutella gingerbread men cookies.

My boy is very inquisitive and usually asks me questions that I find tough to answer. As always he asked me an interesting questions yesterday. Amma, why Β do stars look white and small dots in the sky? I started by telling him that stars are very far and that’s why we can only see a small dot in the sky. He was not convinced and again started off with another question that in cartoons, they are star shaped but in real they are round. I was actually impressed with the way he was trying to differentiate between reel and real life πŸ™‚ ..So, I finally told him that I will make some nutella star cookies for him and put him to bed with a happy smile. He’s also a nutella lover and I finally decided to make some nutella star cookies with these gingerbread men cookies. I have decorated them using royal icing. So, lets first learn how to make an easy royal icing for these cookies:-

 

Ingredients:-

Confectioner’s or powdered sugar – 3/4 cup
Milk – 1/2 tbsp
Corn syrup – 1 tsp
Vanilla extract – 1/2 tsp
Edible green color – 1/8 tsp

Method:

  1. Add confectioner’s sugar, vanilla extract, corn syrup and milk to a mixing bowl.
  2. Blend until it is lump free.
  3. If it’s too thick, add water drop by drop. If it’s too thin, add more confectioner’s sugar.
  4. Divide it into 2 equal parts and add green color in one part and mix well.

 

So, sharing the recipe for Eggless Nutella Gingerbread men cookies and hope you all make it this season and enjoy with your family. Merry Christmas <3 <3
