It's one of my favorite days - May the 4th Be With You (aka May 4th aka Star Wars Day!)'</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
To celebrate I made some of my favorite characters in sugar cookie form.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Since the movies are done (well for now) I'm catching up on some of the cartoon series. They have some great characters too like Hera Syndulla from Star Wars Rebels and Ahsoka Tano from Star Wars Clone Wars (and Rebels). Princess Leia is an all-time fav so I had to include her.</div>

To make all of the cookies I started with a really easy no spread cookie dough recipe. I use <a href="https://www.inkatrinaskitchen.com/best-sugar-cookie-recipe-ever/">this recipe from In Katrina's Kitchen</a>. I used it for another version of <a href="http://www.sugarswings.com/2019/12/baby-yoda-sipping-soup-mandalorian.html">Baby Yoda cookies</a> and it worked great.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Once the cookie dough is mixed tint with natural food colors and/or a tiny bit of food color gels to get the right colors. </div>

</div>
</div>
<div class="subtitle">
<br />
Ingredients</div>
<ul>
<li>1 batch of no spread cookie dough</li>
<li>2 teaspoons cocoa powder for brown </li>
<li>2 teaspoons matcha powder for green</li>
<li>2 teaspoons turmeric for yellow</li>
<li>2 teaspoons of turmeric (plus 1 drop orange food gel) for orange</li>
<li>Blue food gel (for Ahsoka detail)</li>
<li>1 black food marker</li>
<li>Pink and white candy melt / wafers (for baby yoda, Ahsoka, and Hera detail)</li>
<li>Heart shaped sprinkles for mouths</li>
</ul>
Instructions<br />
<ol style="text-align: left;">
<li>Preheat oven to 350 degrees</li>
<li>Divide cookie dough into 5 pieces (depending on which characters you are doing)</li>
<li>Tint each with colors as above in ingredients</li>
<li>Free hand roll out characters (as in photos). I use the cookie dough like clay or play doh and it works great. Mix colors as needed to give marble effect for Loth-cats.</li>
<li>For Loth-cat add mouth with knife before baking.</li>
<li>Bake for 10 minutes or just baked. Watch closely so the cookies don't brown too much.</li>
<li>Once cooled, paint on blue detail for Ahsoka's hair. Use melted pink candy wafer to add detail for baby Yoda's ears and for Ahsoka and Hera's detail. </li>
<li>Use candy melt to attach heart sprinkles for Leia, Ahsoka, and Hera's mouth.</li>
<li>Use black food marker to add eyes and Loth-cat detail.</li>

I really really hope this 9th movie in the Star Wars saga is a great one. 1) Because I love the series and 2) Because I'm tired of the critics picking every movie apart. </div>

These days we need movies to escape a bit and to just enjoy. Real life is hard enough so lets try to agree that each person can enjoy a movie and just because someone else doesn't - doesn't mean it's terrible. Life would be very dull if we all thought and experienced life in the same way. I think sometimes we forget that. </div>

You ask "No dip cake bites, what are they??"</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Well cake bites (or cake balls if you must) that are made using molds versus hand shaped and dipped. I have some Star Wars silicone molds and one is shaped like Storm Troopers</div>

Start by melting some red candy wafers (candy melts) and coat the mold with a decent layer. Let harden for 15 minutes (or refrigerate until hardened about 5 minutes).</div>

Once filled, add more melted candy to cover. Chill for about an hour then pop the cake bites out of the molds. Make sure you use a thick enough layer of candy in the molds and chill for enough time or you might get some breakage!</div>
