Tea-Bag Envelopes

Town House Cookie Boxes
Packaged in quaint town house boxes, these cookies seem all the more authentic in reference to the source of their inspiration (the German town of Nuremberg, which is famous for its "lebkuchen"). The house templates create a sleeve that slips over a box filled with cookies. These are just perfect for a housewarming party.
