A baking post!
Yea!! I haven't done a baking post in a while...So here it is! Up first is......
Valentine cookies you will want to make, (and um, eat!)
So for some time I have been looking for a good royal icing type of frosting recipe. Well I can't remember which blog I clicked on and it took me to this awesome recipe on an awesome blog!
Click HERE to see this REALLY easy icing recipe! It's not royal icing but it is way easier to make I think! (I never have tried making royal icing though). And then once you read how to make the icing you can get cute ideas on how to make your valentine cookies! HERE is her post on her CUTE cookies!
I will say this icing was difficult for me to work with at times! AND frustrating but it was worth it! (It also took a looong time.) I didn't like how some of them looked with plain incing but then when I piped words on them they looked cuter. I wished they looked perfect but they don't but that's okay. Oh and my favorite thing is that even when the icing dries (it takes a few hours once on the cookies) the cookies still stay shiny and glossy! BTW- For the cookies I just used a cookie mix.
