Add water to icing a drop at a time for thinner spreading consistency. Decorate with dragée (sometimes called sugar pearls), gold or silver dust, and coarse or sparkling sugar, and tint the frosting with food color paste. All are available at coppergifts.com. Make the cookie dough up to a month in advance, wrap it tightly, and freeze. Thaw dough completely by placing it in the refrigerator overnight.
These are delicious. I did cheat and use store bought icing. But the cookie part was super tasty. My fiancé ate 3 in a matter of minutes. Agree with the other comments about the dough stickiness. Use lots of flour! It won't ruin the dough.
I LOVE THESE COOKIES! I am using my mom's account to say this! I'm going to help my mom make these! I bet this is is going to be AWESOME! I've been excited about this for SO LONG!
This is a quick, easy recipe that made perfect cookies. The only thing that was less than satisfactory is the yield size -- unless you're making very tiny cookies, you are not going to get 40 cookies out of this recipe. As another review noted, the dough is a bit sticky, but if you're liberal with the flour they will turn out great.
Thin and crispy just the way I like them. Dough slightly sticky but flour helped.
