Cuts of meat: the only way to make a pink, decorated cookie look manly.
I toyed with the idea of baking up a chocolate-bacon cut-out cookie, but I really wanted these to be pink. For the pink, you can either tint your cookie dough pink with food coloring, or use a pink dough. I used some leftover watermelon cookie dough, but I will say, it's a little disconcerting eating a watermelon-flavored pig.
When cutting, though, some of the smaller sections wanted to stick in the cookie cutter. I nudged them out with a chopstick. You can see a little of it here...
To decorate, I used a #3 tip and white royal icing.
Sooie! Here piggy, piggy!!!
