Cinnamon Applesauce Dough (for ornaments)

By shesablogger

You can make your own cinnamon scented Christmas ornaments by using the recipe below:

1 cup applesauce (store brand of course!)

1 1/2 cup cinnamon

Mix together applesauce and cinnamon until a thick dough is formed.  Roll the dough out in between two sheets of waxed paper until it reaches approximately 1/8 inches thick.  Using cookie cutters or a knife, cut out shapes as desired.  Using a straw or toothpick, punch any holes you would like for hanging the ornaments.  Allow shapes to dry on waxed paper on a flat surface until thoroughly dried and hard (usually around 48 hours).  String ribbon through holes to hang.

The scent should last a long time on these ornaments.  Once it does begin to fade, lightly refreshen with a cotton ball dipped in cinnamon oil.
