Princess Sugar Cookies


Saturday, my place of working was evacuated because of a gas leak in the street. What better what better way to spend my time than to go to Michael's?????
I couldn't resist the temptation!
First thing I did when I walked through the door was make my way over to the Wilton products. And these little jewels caught my eye. [Amongst many other things...]
Adorable little princess cookie cutters! Now, I'm not one to stock up on cookie cutters.. My mom has a drawer full of them that I go to when in need of sugar cookies. But I couldn't NOT buy these. They were just too cute. And they are soooo me.. high heels.. tiaras.. princess castle.. Yep, I was done for as soon as I saw them.

So I came home and planned on making some more sugar cookies to practice the Royal flood icing method.

Aren't they just so cute?


My little helper had these counted, but I don't remember how many we had.


After my cookies were cooling, I made up a batch of Royal icing. :)
~2 lbs. of Powdered Sugar
~1/3 cup + 1 TBS of Meringue Powder
~3/4 cup warm water
[I added about 1 1/2 TBS of Almond Extract for taste.]


Black, Pink, Blue, White!





They were pretty fun to decorate, and I'm excited for new decorations! 

Hopefully you'll see my next adventure this weekend... It's gonna be a big one!

Thanks for reading!
