How to decorate your cookies…

Mmmmmm

Over the years I have found appearances of our food can brighten our moods and tastebuds. We have compiled a few techniques here from easy to expert.

Shape
You can cut or form cookies by hand or by using a metal cookie cutter or form. You can obtain the forms from dollar stores. Making a gingerbread man? You can use a form if your artwork is not that great. I’d be horrible at the artwork of a cookie unless I had these tools

Toppings
A few simple ingredients that can be sprinkled on cookies is.

Egg whites

You can use it raw or repasted from dry. Think of eggs whites as glue you can use to attach sprinkles and sugars…

You can use for protein…

Powdered sugar

Powdered sugar should be grounded fine-

Sprinkle away….

Sprinkles

The baking section of your grocers will have a selection of decorating sprinkles and devices… for your cakes and muffins also.

Costs
You can spend a lot of money baking cookies. If you dont bake often you may need ingredients in your home that don’t get used often. How many people carry “Vanilla extract” and flour on a regular basis. Sometimes storebought cookies are justified.

Video

Here is a fun video with some amazing designs.

Good luck and remember to have fun. Try to involve family or friends if you do not bake often.

Baking can be a fun adventure for your family.

Seasonal cookies
Cookies can be cut for many occasions. Christmas cookies, Shamrock cookies, heart-shaped cookies. Cookies that tease or tell jokes.

Love
This is an ingredient that is also the best decoration. Baking cookies shows you spent time and made an effort.

You know why you baked them. Shhhh!
