Instructions
In a large bowl combine the flour, white sugar, ground cinnamon, baking powder and salt.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
On a lightly floured surface roll out the dough to 1/8 inch thick.
Cut with a 2 inch round cookie cutter.
Place on ungreased baking sheets.
Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 8 to 10 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Cool on wire racks. Once cool spread jam on half of the cookies then top each with another cookie.
Combine the confectioners' sugar, 2 tablespoons milk and vanilla until smooth.
Spread glaze over the cookie and decorate with red cinnamon candy before the glaze is set.
Let dry. Using a small new paintbrush and green food coloring, paint holly leaves on cookies.
