Linda – I can’t remember exactly how thick they were. The latest batch I made were at least a quarter inch thick, though. The texture is crisp, but not hard. They hold together very well but crumble easily when you bite down on them. I’m not sure about stacking them, since I stacked mine before they’d had the recommended full day to dry. I mostly put the ones with sanding sugar on the bottom row so the others could be on top and not get marred. I’m planning to make some for Valentine’s Day, so I’ll let you know how they stack!

What beautiful cookies! I just have a few questions. )

How thick is the “extra thick” that you rolled your cookies?

Is the cookie texture crispy, chewy, soft?

Do the cookies “stick” together when stacked, as in the photo where they are covered?

I am … speechless! Amazing! Can I say how much the decorated saddle on the horse made me tighten my fists repetitively like a 5 year-old?? (in a “i want it, i want it!” kind of way – picture it?)

Thank you! I really loved working with the icing, so much so that I want to make some more Christmas cookies now even though the day has passed! I may actually do that anyway because all the snow here meant that I haven’t been able to give a lot of people their goodies yet, and these cookies are long gone now. Otherwise, I’m definitely making some with the heart designs for Valentine’s Day.

I think a post of other people’s cookies would be great…I was very inspired by yours.

Wow- your cookies look **fantastic!** seriously gorgeous. I love the designs you did. I’ve been meaning to start a thread on my blog with other people’s cookies and I think you just inspired me to actually do it. Thanks for sharing!
