I always feel a little rush of adrenaline when I find an opportunity to use another one of my cookie cutters! Today, as we prepared for the Swim Team Banquet, I got out my alphabet cookie cutters, all in search of one letter - "W" for Waves.
Cut out cookies are perfect for little hands.
As usual, we used the frozen, prepared dough that I stock-pile when it comes out around Christmas.
Each girl demanded equal time with the "W" cutter -
As well as equal face time on the blog!
We baked up almost 4 dozen W's from two packets of frozen dough.
I frosted them them in an aqua blue with my new favorite alternative to Royal Icing -
Wilton's Poured Cookie Icing.
I've posted the recipe before, but it bears repeating.
I used the same icing recipe to outline the cookies in white.
GO WAVES!
