Description

These cinnamon stars are a must during the Christmas season! I bake them every year and they are always a hit. The dough is easy to prepare and is guaranteed to succeed with the Thermomix®. The scent of cinnamon fills the whole house and the stars taste simply heavenly. They taste particularly good if you keep them in a cookie tin for a few days, then they are nice and soft. A great recipe for the whole family and perfect for giving as a gift!
