It’s that time of year when everyone is thinking about which cookie they are going to make for the cookie exchange. The Gingerbread Mickey Mouse cookies are perfect and will be the hit of the cookie exchange.
Who doesn’t love gingerbread? Especially when shaped like their favorite Disney character? And Ghirardelli Chocolate to top it off.
