Being stuck in the house since Tuesday gave me a LOT of free time to surf the internet. You all know that ALWAYS leads to trouble. For a while now I’ve been wanting to try making and decorating fancy sugar cookies. I follow a few different sites where the women make the coolest decorated cookies, with the smoothest frosting. I wanted to see if this is something I could do! So today I ran out to pick up the supplies I needed to try this new craft!
I thought I would start with just some simple Valentine hearts. I baked the cookies, made the frosting and then started the piping. I had a little trouble keeping the outline straight. I think maybe my frosting was a little thick. Next time I’ll have to thin it out a little before trying the outline. Next I tried what they called flooding. It was a little easier, but it still didn’t come out perfect, so of course I was a little disappointed. I have a feeling I’ll be making a lot of cookies so I can practice these new techniques!
