When Imperial Sugar asked me to make some back-to-school cookies, I was thrilled. Now that Jack's in college, I don't get the chance to make cute school cookies much. *insert quiet sobbing here*
I am obsessed with these cookies. Those "flat apples" in the background are created using a toothpick. (Well, lots of toothpicks.)
Mr. E thought the apples were from an icing transfer sheet or some sort of stencil. Nope! Icing and toothpicks! Magic!
I love, love, love the crisp white, red, and green color scheme. It screams September to me. As much as I'm ready for fall, I'm just not onboard with orange and pumpkins quite yet. (Give me another week or so.) Oh, and I'm also not ready for Hobby Lobby to start displaying their Valentine merchandise.
I should mention that these are also DOUBLE-DECKER cookies! Woo hoo!
The complete tutorial is over on the Imperial Sugar blog, Sweetalk. ♥
