Decorated Flower Cookies
Whether you’re a beginner or experienced cookie decorator, flower cookies are one that everyone should have in their repertoire. They are perfect in a group but also work well as a stand-alone design. Flower cookies are a great way to add color and interest to any theme without investing a lot time and effort.
A few days ahead of time, I used printed circle templates to make several flower centers . To learn more and to print your own, click here.
Decorating was as easy as outlining, filling, then dropping on a center. The key is to work quickly. If you need to make any adjustments, use a small pointed tool such as a turkey lacer or boo-boo stick to gently reposition the center.
If you don’t have pre-made centers on hand, you can always pipe them directly onto the cookie. Create a circle with 20-second icing, then use the tip to gently remove any air bubbles.
When the cookies are dry, you can dress them up any way you like. I went with a whimsical black outline piped with a #1.5 tip.
Remember, this is just one of several ways to approach decorating flower cookies. The possibilities are as endless as your imagination.
