Minecraft Creeper Cookies Christmas

Hi everyone! Those super cute Minecraft Creeper santa cookies will make a perfect holiday gift and treats for all Minecraft fans. Also they will be excellent Christmas tree ornaments.

How about making unique homemade holiday gifts and treats this Christmas?

So, let’s get started!

I will start by making the cookie dough. It’s basically French sable cookie dough. The taste will be somewhere between Viennese cookies and Hollandais cookies (French checkerboard cookies).

First, soften the butter.

For this, the butter should be at room temperature.

And sift in confectioners’ sugar and add in vanilla and a pinch of salt.

Whisk to combine.

Then sift in cake flour.

Then fold until combined.

And knead to make cookie dough.

Now I will make colored dough with food colors: green, red, and black.

Kneading is good, because it will prevent forming gluten. No one wants tough cookies. ?We are making French ‘sable (sands)’ cookies after all.

Now cover with plastic bags or plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator until the dough is chilled.

Now make 0.4 inch thick dough.

I use steel sticks when rolling.

And I use booklets to make 0.2 inch thick sheets.

And use egg white as a glue between the bricks when building Creepers.

Please watch the video above to learn how to build Creepers. The measurements are in the video.

Then carefully wrap the Creeper with a green dough sheet.

Voila!

I’m the happiest when the shape of cookie turns out perfect like photos below. :)

It’s a lovely Creeper santa, isn’t it?
