Heh! I so wish I could share my cookies with my cyberfriends. The frosted star one is luxurious indeed: made of ground dark chocolate and ground almonds instead of flour, and covered with white chocolate. Mmmm...

The beaded garlands are all hand-made, actually. The beads are rolled soft paper (like a piece of paper napkin) covered with tin foil chocolate wrappings and the likes. I made them all while watching TV, years ago. :)
