FINDING NEMO “MINE” SEAGULLS SUGAR COOKIES
INGREDIENTS:
Sugar Cookies
- 1 stick of unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup of granulated white sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp of vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp of baking powder
- 1/4 tsp of salt
- 2 cups of flour
Icing
- 4 cups (1 lb) of confectioner’s sugar
- 6 tbsp of warm water
- 3 tbsp of meringue powder
- Piping bags
- Food coloring (black and orange)
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Preheat the oven to 350F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- To prepare the sugar cookie dough: In a bowl of a stand mixer use the paddle attachment to beat the butter and sugar on medium to high speed until combined.
- Beat in the egg, vanilla extract, baking powder and salt.
- Add the flour slowly and mix until dough is formed.
- Roll out dough about 1/4 inch thick with a rolling pin. Cut out seagull shaped.
- Place cookies on baking sheet.
- Bake at 350F for 6-8 minutes.
- Allow cookies to cool completely before decorating.
- To prepare the icing: Beat all icing ingredients until peaks form. This should be about 7-10 minutes in a stand mixer at low speed. For stiffer icing to use for outlining the cookies, use 1 tbsp less water. For the thinned (flood) royal icing, add an additional teaspoon of water at a time until you reach a good consistency.
- Separate frosting into bowls, and then mix in food coloring.
- Transfer frosting into piping bags and decorate.
Happy Valentine’s Day!
