Cookies!

It's been a LONG time since I posted here - not that I haven't been cooking, of course, I DO have 4 children who enjoy eating - I just don't seem to have a whole lot of spare time these days!

I have really wanted to learn the "flooding" technique for icing cut-outs for a long time, I just didn't get there....until now! I must say it's a lot more work but totally worth the effort. You get absolutely adorable cookies! My sweet niece just turned 1 and for her birthday, I decided that I would learn a new skill! :)
Her theme was owls and I have seen a ton of adorable owl cookies on Pintrest and figured I could use them as reference. Here is what I came up with:

Finished product


I also did round ones with "1"'s and "C"'s for the bday girls first name

All packaged up!

The princess!
