Ok I used my favorite cookie recipe and cut ovals and tiny bunnys and Jumbo bunnys. I made the icing and probally didn't make it thick enough. My 12 year old Son and I made beautiful eggs and large bunnys...here is the funny our countertops are not level they angle to the back and sink. luckly we were working on a cookie sheet lined with a silicone sheet. The icing slid off onto the sheet. They were still beautiful but not on the cookie. Ha Ha I will have to try again, the icing was soft and tasty though. The tiny bunnys just got iced with left over color on my cool level stove top and had no problems. Always an adventure, cooking is. Thanks for the great instructions I have always wanted to try this type of icing and will do again...maybe with thicker icing :-)
Glad you could see the humor in this first try decorating cookies. Best wishes for you both with take 2 - with a level place and perhaps a bit thicker icing. Maybe a test cookie would be good to see results before you decorate all the cookies! Irene @ KAFOh, Jana, I've been there too. Shannon and I made several of these cookies for a bake sale, and our rack was tilted too. I had to rescue a half dozen cookies that had started to lose their tops! We ended up putting our cookie sheets on the dryer to sit, as every other surface in the kitchen was covered in cupcakes. Thanks for the connection. ~MaryJane
