Add fun and whimsy to your holiday table setting with cookie place cards. They not only serve a functional purpose; they're also an edible treat your guests will enjoy.
Often an important part of a table setting for a large dinner party, place cards can often add sophistication to your table. If you're hosting a holiday dinner, try this idea: Bake a batch of cookies, then using a pastry bag filled with royal icing, pipe the name of each guest onto the surface of the cookie. You can select a favorite shape cookie cutter or one that is tailored to your dinner's theme. These fun cookie cards not only direct guests where to sit at the table, but they become an inexpensive favor that can be taken home at the end of the evening.
For recipes that make the best bases for decorated place cards, try gingerbread cookies, chocolate butter cookies, or sugar cookies.
