I like making cinnamon biscuits to hang on my Christmas tree, but the old recipe I used (now long-lost) used butter! Any ideas, anyone??

did you see ShellMarrs ginger biscotti recipe they sound yum?
Biscuits in American are savoury things eaten with dinner I think, kinda like dumplings, you eat them with gravy.

Cinnamon Dough Ornaments
A richly scented ornamental cookie. These would be fabulous decorating a Christmas tree, but don't try to eat them!
1 cup ground cinnamon
4 tablespoons white glue
3/4 to 1 cup water
Mix cinnamon and glue. Gradually add the water. Stir until a ball of dough forms. Roll out with rolling pin 1/4 inch thick and cut with cookie cutters. Poke a hole and let dry at room temperature for 1 to 2 days, turning over every 6-8 hours. Hang with ribbon and enjoy the fragrance!

I've made these in the past. They make the house smell great
I bought the cinnamon & glue today!! LOL But then when I got home I realized I don't have any christmas cookie cutters  I'm going to a Christmas craft show in the morning so maybe I will find one there. I want to make them for Mom, Dad, & Sister to give to them at Thanksgiving so they can USE THEM for THIS season!!

my recipe for these is edible but doesn't taste good!
applesauce and cinnamon... strain the sauce in a cheesecloth or towel ovenight, it should reduce drastically... pour out liquid from underneath.
mix remaining liquid with cinnamon until it forms a stiff dough- if i recall if you start with 1 cup applesauce you add 1.5 cups cinnamn, but work it in slowly till you have a good consistancy...
then roll, and cut... after which a) use the food dehydrator or b) bake on low heat until mostly firm, rotating after an hour (typically takes 2-3 hours)

if your talking cinnamon rolls.. you could try adding sugar and cinnamon to my monticello biscuits recipe I posted here awhile back... basically any rising dough with some sugar added for sweetness to it should work!

Yes I thought biscuits at first when reading that post even though I saw it was Linz. It is just a first reaction.  But the second thought was 'of course she means cookies'. After going to the UK last year my hub and I incorporated some English phrases sporatically in our lingo. We say biscuits if we are talking about fat, heavy cookies and we call this one sweater of mine a jumper and we says scones the right way. LOL

Oh, this one looks MUCH easier!!
CINNAMON-DOUGH ORNAMENTS #2
6 tablespoons applesauce
10 tablespoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground cloves
MIX applesauce, cinnamon, and cloves until smooth and claylike. Sprinkle cinnamon on your tabletop and rolling pin, and roll the dough to about 1/8-inch thickness. Use cookie cutters or a small knife to cut out your shapes. With a small skewer make holes for hanging ribbons and draw details on the shapes. Place cutouts on a cookie sheet and put in a 120 degrees F oven. After 1-1/2 hours turn the oven off but leave the ornaments in overnight to dry. Store in an airtight jar until ready to use. Decorate with ribbons and hang on the Christmas tree or tie them to holiday gifts. Makes about 20 fragrant ornaments.
