Troll’s Sugar Cookie Christmas Tree

I partnered with NBC Universal Studios to bring this post, all thoughts, and opinions expressed in this post are my own.

It’s hard to believe that it’s that time of the year again when families celebrate the holidays together. It wasn’t long ago when my family started our own holiday traditions. Since the kids can remember, we have baked Santa Cookie’s and left milk out on Christmas Eve. We also do many other things to countdown to the big Christmas day to keep us in the holiday spirit.

Starting on December 1rst my family begins to countdown to Christmas Day by watching all of our favorite Christmas Movies. With 25 days to work towards you could say that it becomes a fun game to figure out which movies we will watch on each day. My favorite of all movies I have to confess is The Grinch, I love Cindy Loo. The little song she sings in the movie always makes me feel gushy inside.

Although my family does love the classic Christmas movies I have to admit a lot of the new movies coming out are just as adorable and heartwarming. When I found out that a Trolls Holiday Movie was coming out my little girls and I flipped our sparkles. To celebrate the release of The New Movie Trolls Holiday, the girls and I decided to throw an extra sparkly movie night. The boys were invited and so was Grandma, we knew we would be baking up some delicious cookies to celebrate.

The girls and I had an amazing time baking up these delicious cookies as well as decorating them. If you would like to bake them up for your little sparkly troll in your home then simply follow the recipe below. Don’t forget to check out the fun trailer as well as a Special Treat you have to see below
