	~	Raisins
	~	Cranberry Sauce
	~	Frozen shredded coconut (no preservatives)

Steps

Bake a recipe of your favorite Gingerbread (or sugar) cookies.

Spread cream cheese honey icing on cool gingerbread cookies.
Decorate a beard using defrosted frozen shredded coconut.
Add a dried cranberry for nose.
Add raisins for eyes.

Sliced almonds are also ideal for the ball on the hat.
