Spiced butter cookies

In between looking after a toddler and a 4 month old and wrangling with Kmart over a bungled order (Kmart I love ya but you let your homegirl down this time!), Christmas has really sneaked up on me this year! So if you too find yourself needing to do some last minute Christmas baking- whip up a batch of these amazing and super quick cookies!

Tapioca water beads for the win!

3 cups of tapioca pearls boiled for 30 minutes, drain and wash under cold water then let sit in food colouring+water for at least 5 minutes, then wash again to get the excess colour off and voila!

They are at their slippery best immersed in a little bit of water. An entire afternoon of fun for Miss Toddler!
