Living the Crazy Life: One Recipe at a Time

 

Star Wars Cookies

Every time I read through the baking blogs I follow (i am baker and sweetopia just to name a few), I am swept away by their amazing sugar cookies.  They have mad skills.  


Their cookies make me want to make cookies.  Good cookies, too.  Now, I know that sugar cookie skills don't happen over night.  So I thought I had better get started if I wanted my cookies to be fabulous any time soon.


In pops a need for sugar cookies.  


My dear friend's son recently had surgery and I thought I would make his day with some sweets.  


Well, technically I left a facebook comment asking my friends for a reason to bake cookies.  But who's keeping track of these minor details?


I didn't know much about my friend's son, other than his name and his age.  I did some research, combing through my friend's facebook photos.  Low and behold, I come across a picture of her son wearing a Star Wars shirt.  So I went with it.


Let's hope he's still into Star Wars.

I still have a long way to go.  I haven't mastered outlining the cookie with royal icing yet.  It seems simple enough, yet every time I tried tracing the cookie, my hand didn't make a nice circle.


One lesson I learned this time is to take my time next time.  By the time I got to writing Noah, my hand was shot.  I could barely write a straight line.

I'm still working out the spill and fill method too.  


But that's what I got.  I think Noah will be satisfied, and that's the only one who matters.

I'll post the royal icing recipe soon.  It's definitely a keeper.

    Hi Kristin!
    My name is Loren and I am a baker and cake/cookie decorator and I blog at "The Baking Sheet". Amanda from "I Am Baker" gave me your name and told me that in a recent contest she had, you nominated someone in need of a little cheering up in the form of baked treats. Amanda had so many requests that touched her heart, she just couldn't just pick 5, as the contest stated. She wanted to send ALL of the nominees cookies but that was just not possible. She decided to solicit the help of her fellow cookiers. That's where I come in! We are on a mission to send 165 cookie packages - one to each nominee! I would love to send your nominee a box of my homemade cookies. Please send me an email telling me a little about him (hobbies, interests, etc.) and I will come up with something fabulous to send him! Thanks so much! :o)
