More great cookies!

Well, I got about 8 new cookie cutters for Christmas and then I got a President's Day present from my soon-to-be sister-in-law: can you imagine a President's day gift!?  I loved it and couldn't wait to use it.  See if you can see them in the picture:


As a housewife (and regular person), I have to limit my intake of the delicious things I bake.  Consequently, I have made a rule that I only make sugar cookies once a year at Christmas.  I have absolutely no self-control when it comes to these cookies.  They are my ultimate comfort food.  Well, my niece and I were talking and she mentioned the helicopter cookie cutter she got me and said I could make some for her birthday...obviously I obliged.  I tried really hard to get rid of all these cookies without eating them all, but I must have had like 15 or so before they were all gone.  They are so good!  Which cookie cutter from the picture is your favorite?

  2. What frosting recipe did you use? I dont have a size 2 or 1 tip - I am getting those on my trip next week. Necessary for those detailed lines! (Oh, frog)

  3. I used the frosting recipe in my head, silly. I was born with it, you know. I used a number 2 and 3 tip for the outlines.
