Dia de los Muertos cookies
I wanted to make a few special cookies to celebrate Dia de los Muertos. I searched for a skull cookie cutter but to no avail. The closest I could come up with was a skull and cross bones. Not quite the same.
I went ahead and just drew the skulls on larger cookies with some royal icing. I’m still working on my technique, although I think these came out nicer than my Star Wars cookies. I would have liked to draw on some roses and other decorations but I don’t think I couldn’t have managed the detail. Thinking maybe next time I can paint food coloring on for more delicate lines.
Most importantly, they tasted awesome and were still pretty cute.

🙂 Lovely, they look awesome to me.
They look perfect! I’m a sucker for a good sugar cookie, and they just taste so much better when they look cute!
There’s a lot to be said for simplicity! 😉 These look great.
