Christmas Cookies-Ok, I admit, I stole the idea!!
Sometimes, I just need a bit of baking therapy. This is what this project was about...because let's face it, who would eat cookies like this? Not that I find them too pretty to eat, but basically, for them to not spread too much, I had to use a very dry recipe, so I don't know how good these even taste! And so much royal icing is bound to give anyone a toothache. But as the title suggests, I saw this in Julia Usher's Ultimate Cookie book-I have ordered it, but not yet recieved, so basically, I just did what I thought is how she did hers...we'll see when I get the book! I keep learning from my royal icing mistakes though...this time, it was just always too leaky-which is why the snowman and the polar bear look a bit off...but all in all, and from afar, they look pretty cool! As usual, I put my favorite in the forefront...putting the best foot forward, is my motto!!! Expect more unusual cookies in the future, I really like decorating them! Hope you like looking at them!!

ReplyDeleteI don't even know what to say other than Wow!! These as well as the amazing Grinch Christmas pops are out of this world!! I can't get over how talented you are!!!kt
ReplyDeleteThank you Katie!! I really enjoyed doing these. The icing was too liquid and I had to correct a few things, but all in all I really like the result-if only because they are very different to most cookies you see. Now they are on my counter though-cause like I wrote, who wants to actually eat cookies like these!!!
