Santa Graham Cookies #Christmas #Cookies

I have fond memories of baking Christmas cookies with my mom and I like to do the same thing with my own kids. Of course, my kids are still young and makes the perfect cut-out frosted cake just isn't going to happen. This is good for me because it challenges the perfectionist in me, which is something I am working on letting go. But I was looking for a recipe is easy-to-make, fun to try with my kids.

There's no cake or cooking involved and it is simple but very fun for kids. Kids will love this cake decorating Graham Santa as much as they will enjoy eating this delicious treat!
