After my first attempt at decorating cut out cookies with royal icing was a complete debacle, I vowed that that was one thing that I did not need on my menu. They were delicious no doubt but they looked awful. The icing flooded for sure... all over the table. It was a disaster.
Well, as you can see from a previous post or two I think I've gotten pretty good at it. I recently did pocketbook cookies for a ladies night party. Sidebar what do you call them, pocketbooks, handbags or purses? I say pocketbooks and people always look at me like I'm crazy. I think it may be a Philly thing.
Anyway, the pocketbooks came out really cute. I also did apple cookies for my son's last day of kindergarten and his teachers loved them. I found these cute printable Thank You tags somewhere and they were perfect for the boxes.
