Directions
Drain the moisture from the applesauce for 10 or 15 minutes (or longer if necessary) by putting it in a colander or strainer which you've lined with a coffee filter (or something similar).
Pour the whole container of cinammon into a bowl and add just a little applesauce at a time; stir; keep adding but check carefully each time; until you have a VERY STIFF dough.
Roll out the dough between two sheets of waxed paper until it's around a quarter inch thick, then cut it with cookie cutters.
Make holes in the dough cutouts with drinking straws.
Put the cookies in a very low oven (only about 175 to 200 degrees F) for several hours; watch carefully so they don't burn (if they start to, lower oven).
Or you can air-dry them for several days, turning them over carefully each day.
When COMPLETELY DRY, put ribbons thru the holes and hang on the tree.
