I saw these cookie cutters and added them to my Pinterest board (titled Happiness) last spring. I bought the set at Williams Sonoma and promptly tucked the whole kit away and forgot I had it. But then, I remembered! Just last week! So we made some cookies. Everyone got to pick a vocabulary word. These were just everyday fun cookies, not for a birthday or holiday. Just 'cause.
Names were used as well.
How was I supposed to not be immature with these? There are so many things we could have written. We did a really good job controlling ourselves. These are very different cookies than what I would have made before having kids.
And—they were delicious! The recipe that comes with them is perfect. They need to to be chilled twice, and I wouldn't skip this step. I use meringue powder thinned with water to paint on the cookie where I wanted the glitter. Worked like a charm.
