Winter officially begins on December the 21st this year. It's already pretty chilly where I live which made me want to create a mitten cookie! This cookie is pretty simple despite looking intricate - just follow along and create this sweet treat.
Materials needed:
~ Baked sugar cookies - You can get a similar cookie cutter HERE.
~ Royal Icing
~ Red gel food coloring - You can get a pack HERE.
~ Scribe
~ Piping bags
The royal icing consistencies should be as follows:
*White royal icing - medium to stiff consistency
*Red royal icing - medium consistency
For this design, you do not need to use any specific type of tip. I simply the desired hole size at the tip of the piping bag. If you get any bubbles while piping, simply use your scribe or toothpick and smooth it out.
Step 1
Make sure your baked cookie is completely cooled before adding any royal icing.
Step 2
Fill the entire cookie with red royal icing. Use the scribe or toothpick to even out the icing, if needed.
Step 3
Next, take the white icing, and outline the mitten.
Step 4
In this step, it's time to be creative. You don't have to re-create the design in the image below, you can make your own! Make snowflakes, polka dots, hearts, and diamonds.
