decided that I needed to start baking again. The kitchen aid mixer was getting a little dusty.
I pulled out my trusty sugar cookie recipe (thanks, Beth!) and my new cookie cutter set (thanks, Cath!).
I decided to try something a little more adventurous than normal. Normal being – cut out different shaped cookies and decorate with colored frosting.
I decided to try “flooding”. What does this mean? Well, it means that you pipe a relatively “thick” line of frosting around the edge of the cookie, and then fill it in with a more diluted frosting. The end effect *should* be a perfectly smooth frosting job. I think it will take some time getting the consistencies just right, but all in all, it wasn’t too bad.
Then, I thought it would be fun to pipe some designs. Designs quickly turned to names, which quickly turned to first initials. Whatever. My piping skills need some practice.
Then I added some holly for a final touch.
Then I tied them to the presents like tags. They were eaten shortly after the gifts were open (how green of us).

I love it! I think "flooded" (can't believe I don't know this term…I love Martha!) looks way better!

Ooo!! Yay! I'm glad you already put one of the items to use. 🙂 Tell me you've read Pioneer Woman's blog. It's my new obsession.
