Sarah Michelle Gellar is ready for the holidays. Crafting gingerbread cookies is a fun activity for the Foodstirs cofounder and her children, Charlotte, 8 and Rocky, 5, whom she shares with husband Freddie Prize Jr.

Instead of making gingerbread men, they “make an entire family, then male them into a sandwich with frosting in between,” the Buffy the Vampire Slayer alum, 40, exclusively tells Us Weekly. See her recipe below!
