COOKIE DECORATING MADE EASY!

SNOWFLAKE COOKIES/ Arctic Blast



I never knew what it was like to live in Siberia .... until this winter. How ‘bout you? The arctic air that normally hangs over Northern Russia and Canada in the winter decided to take a trip south to the states. Even Dixie is enduring freezing temps. The annual Iditarod Dogsled Race which begins next week moved the start of the race further north from Anchorage to Fairbanks due to lack of snow. WHAT? 


Well, it’s the time of year when I decorate my favorite cookie … Snowflakes. I love to make these every winter. These cookies are decorated in winter white and airbrushed for a shimmery glow.

    Love all the lovely pastel coloured snowflake cookies. We hit the road from Canada to escape a few months of our brutal winter and hide out in Florida. Not as warm here as we experienced last year but we are a lot warmer none the less.

      Hi Paula, I can't decide which I like more, pastel airbrushing on the cookies or the white-on-white look. I hope you're having a great time down south and playing a lot of golf.
