Attempting to Bake

We've got a cookie Christmas party on Saturday, and the kids will be baking them on friday! :) I'm searching around for a few recipes (with ingredients available locally!) and will jot a few here:

Brush the cookies with egg white and sprinkle First Choice Chopped Macadamias nuts for a nutty taste.

Or cld try Phoon Huat (in Bedok and Simei) Instant Cookie Mix- just add butter, mix by hand and u get the dough. Then can focus on using cookie cutters and decorating? :)
