Baked some delicious “sheep” cookies last week – recipe for "Royal Icing (sort of)" & Sugar Cookie can be found at {the decorated cookie}. If you like your shaped cookies to stay the shape you cut them in, this is the Sugar Cookie recipe to use!
Much better looking than my attempt at “yarn” cookies a month ago. Those can be seen at the CraftFail website, one of the funniest sites I’ve been privileged to contribute to. The only one that makes me laugh harder is Cake Wrecks. Do you have any favorite websites that make you laugh?
Update 8/2016: For the faces, I melted some chocolate and piped
it through a pastry bag onto waxed paper, creating the heads/ears. After
they cooled & hardened, I was able to peel them off and stick them
to the cookies with a dab of Royal Icing, then added the eyeballs with a
drop of Royal Icing. When that was all set, I used an edible marker to
make the pupils.
Eek! these are FANTASTIC! Love love love. Way beyond cute and perfect. Phew, I'm so glad it worked out! Thanks for linkin'.
ReplyDeleteThey are cute but I'm not sure if I would eat them with the icing and the black sheep. hahaha. It's just me. I like to eat my cookies without the embellishments.
ReplyDeleteoh my! those are too cute to eat!
ReplyDeleteThey were really cute but they tasted so good, too - people ate them up quick.
ReplyDeleteHow cute :) Shaped cookies always taste better :)
ReplyDeleteHey---are you a Wallace and Gromit fan?? Those sheep look like Shaun! And they are fantastic. I would eat a dozen easily.
ReplyDeleteOh, my - I wish I had made these when I had the girls here and my friend's sheep in the yard! Too funny!
ReplyDeleteThese are so cute! I'm going to check your links.
ReplyDeleteThese cookies are beyond cute! And boy, did I laugh about the fact that a site such as "Craft Fail" even exists.
ReplyDeleteThose cookies are too cute!
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone for your delicious comments!!
ReplyDeleteCraftyR - it's funny you say that because as I was making the faces I thought they looked like Shaun the sheep!! I guess my subconscious produced what I thought was a cute sheep face!
Totally adorable! Got any left over?
ReplyDeleteThese are so cute! Love them.
