Christmas is the perfect time for no-strings-attached gift giving, but hosts Ree Drummond and Eddie Jackson have five incredible cookie makers adding a lot of strings as they take on a new trend in DIY Christmas decor -- string art! The joyous journey continues as the carnival comes to town, and the remaining bakers construct Christmas cookie carousels that'd make the perfect spinning centerpiece. To capture the essence of a carnival, they'll incorporate traditional circus foods into their cookies, like kettle corn, peanuts, caramel apples and churros. One talented cookie maker will take home $10,000 and the title of Christmas Cookie Champion!
