Cookie Decorating




In order to feel more useful while I'm unemployed, I decided to practice my cookie decorating skills. This recipe is from Southern Living for chocolate sugar cookies. I won't bother to repeat the recipe. It is available online or any sugar cookie recipe will do. These are made with all butter which makes a crisper, flatter cookie for decorating. I'm specifically trying to master the outline and flood technique. Based on these cookies, I still need more practice. I have a hard time figuring out how wet to make it so the icing will flow smoothly. These are o.k. but they could be better. I guess that just means I'll have to keep making cookies!

Stefanie thinks they're yummy!
