....so i don't do a ton of decorated cookies...well because i'm not really all that good at them.....but i love love love these....
....well as an alternative.....decided to create some edible pieces of their recent drawings....and since i'm blogging about it....it keeps it forever (the internet is forever, right?).....these are made from candy melt....just add whatever colors you need to a zip lock baggie....snip a small part of one of the ends and trace the art over a some parchment paper (wax paper works as well)......if you need to layer colors....just wait til the first layer dries before adding color on top.....you can find more detailed directions here....(i do this all the time!)
....and let dry.....
....then add on top of some iced sugar cookies (i did this the easy way and used a boxed sugar cookie mix --use the rolled cookie directions.....roll out dough and cut cookies large enough to fit the artwork.....)....frost with your fav sugar cookie icing....then add the candy melt image on top before totally dry.....
...these are my 7 year old's ninjas.....!
.....and because he thinks his big bro is the bomb.....these are my 4 year old's ninjas.....!
....and my other 4 year old's impressionist art....!
....AND we recently had our 16th....yes 16th anniversary....AND this is the card we got....!....so very cool...
...so i had to make it as a topper for our anniversary cake.....(a tiramisu layer cake which was pretty awesome....!)
....yum.....!
....and you get some really really really...really cool sugar cookies topped with your kiddos favorite artwork....
.....btw---these were definitely a huge hit with the kids.....!...and so fun...!....as always, thanks for stopping by and have a great rest of the week....!
