INSTRUCTIONS:

• Preheat oven to 350F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
• In a large bowl, combine softened butter, sugar, egg and vanilla. Whisk until mixture is smooth.
• Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in another bowl. Mix well.
• Slowly add the dry ingredients into the wet, stirring as you pour. If you need to, use your hands to finish mixing the dough together.
• Roll the dough onto a well floured surface.
• Use cookie cutter to create circles, and then transfer them onto a baking sheet.
• Bake cookie for 6-8 minutes. Let cool on the baking sheet for 1-2 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack.
• Prepare the icing. Combine 2 egg whites and vanilla in a large bowl. Add powdered sugar (about 1/2 cup at a time). Starting with egg whites helps better manage the consistency of your icing. It if becomes too stiff, add a little bit of milk (1/2 tsp at a time) to make it smoother. For this recipe, the icing should be on the stiff side so it doesn’t run too much.
• Divide the icing into 3 equal parts. Add pale yellow food coloring to one bag, light pink food coloring to the second bag, and light teal food coloring to the third bag.
• Pour 2/3 of each mixture into a sandwich bag.
• Add more food coloring to the remaining icing, and then pour into three separate storage bags.

• Once the cookies have cooled, begin piping the icing onto the cookies. To turn the storage bags into piping bags, use scissors to trim off a small corner of a storage bag.

• Apply a coat of the lighter shade of yellow onto a few cookies in the Tsum Tsum shape. Repeat with the lighter pink and lighter teal.
• Place the cookies in the freezer for a few minutes so the icing sets. This will ensure that the darker colors won’t blend.

• Remove the cookies from the freezer. Pipe Winnie the Pooh’s facial features onto each cookie with the darker shade of yellow, pink and teal. Remember, practice makes perfect!

Enjoy!
