Sugar Cookies – A Kitchen Catwalk Christmas Carol
Mixer blades, mixer blades
It’s Christmas time in the kitchen
Swish-n-whir, hear them purr
Soon it will be Christmas day!
Kitchen catwalks, busy catwalks
Dressed in holiday style
In the bowl
There’s a mixture of goodness
Butter whipping
Sugar creaming
Mixing egg after egg
And on ev’ry kitchen catwalk you’ll hear…
Mixer blades, Mixer blades
It’s Christmas time in the kitchen
Swish-n-whir, hear them purr
Soon it will be Christmas day!
Scoops of powder
Dreamy powder
Billow up from the cream
As the blades rumble on with their mixtures
Hear the big thump
See the dough clump
It’s a mixer’s big scene
And above all this bustle you’ll hear…
Mixer blades, mixer blades
It’s Christmas time in the kitchen
Swish-n-whir, hear them purr
Soon it will be Christmas day!
Creamy dough lumps, tasty dough lumps
Pressed in pat-a-cake style
On the counter
There’s a layer of flour
Pins are rolling
Dough is flat-ning
Meeting roll after roll
And on every catwalk you will see…
Ku-Ki-Do, Ku-Ki-Do
It’s Christmas time in the kitchen
Shapes-to-make, smell them bake
Soon it will be Christmas day!
Specks of sweet lights
Tiny star lights
Blink a bright red and white
As the bakers dress up all their treasures
Taste the frosting
Tint the frosting
This is sugar’s big scene
And after all of this bustle you’ll taste…
Sugar cookies, Sugar cookies
It’s Christmas time in the kitchen
Crunch-n-munch, eat a bunch
Soon it will be Christmas day!
Kitchen Catwalk Christmas Cookies
3 cups powdered sugar
2 cups butter
2 tsp vanilla
1 tsp almond extract
2 eggs
5 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
3/4 tsp cream of tartar
Frosting
3 cups powdered sugar
1/3 cup butter
Vanilla if you like it in frosting
2 TBSP milk (or so…this is how you control consistency, so go slow.)
Follow the usual Ku-Ki-Do directions. Bake at 350 degrees for 9 minutes on a regular cookie sheet…no stone for these guys.
If any of you bake and decorate sugar cookies, I’d love to see pictures!!! Sing while you work.
Wishing you all a love and joy-filled Christmas!
