Decorating Easter Cookies

For those of you looking forward to Easter time, the one thing that makes Easter extra special are decorated Easter cookies. Just like Christmas cookies have become a staple of Christmas time, so have Easter cookies become a part of Easter tradition. There are many great ways to adorn the Easter season and decorated Easter cookies are just one of them. Here are some tips on putting smiles on the faces of your kids or friends this Easter season.


Decorating Easter Cookies

Decorated Easter Cookies Come in All Shapes and Sizes
Decorated Easter cookies can come in many shapes and sizes and if you can imagine it you can truly prepare it. For most people Easter is affiliated with bunnies, rabbits, chicks, lambs and Easter eggs. For the most part you can usually find many of these shapes and more in the form of cookie cutters.

Cookie cutters are frequently easy to pick up at all discount shops, grocers, and craft shops. Or you can almost always design them yourself- you just need some pliable metal and an idea. If you don’t have a cookie cutter, no big deal. In fact many people that are artistically gifted choose to cut their own shapes out of cookie dough themselves, without using any cookie cutter.

Decorated Easter Cookies Start Out with Scrumptious Cookie Dough
The most important thing about the adorned Easter cookies that you make is that must taste just as awesome as they look. No one likes a terrible tasting cookie. For many chefs, a good cookie starts out with delicious cookie dough. Yes, you can buy the dough already pre-made and ready to cut, but for the purists out there, start with a family recipe that is either chocolate chip or of the sugar cookie nature.

Decorate Your Cookie Using the Tools of the Trade
It's easy to adorn your Easter cookies, just make sure you have all the accompaniments of the trade. They usually involve, food coloring, colored icing, sprinkles, delicious candies such as licorice, M& M’s, nuts, marshmallows, etc. Once you have gotten the cookie shape, let yourself or your kids use their creative magic to make splendidly decorated Easter cookies. You can find food coloring and many cool decorating tools at your local supermarket. You can even buy pre-made Easter embellishments to add to your cookies, cakes or Easter eggs.

Presentation Presentation Presentation
Once your newly designed Easter cookies are complete, make sure to show them off to the rest of the family and even give them away to your neighbors and friends. Savor the Easter spirit by showcasing your tasty and creative decorated Easter cookies.

One creative trick is to take some photos of your adorned Easter cookies and include them in your annual Easter scrapbook, so you can always look back at the savory and beautifully adorned Easter cookies that you have made.

You can also write the cookie recipe on an attractive recipe card and include a photograph of your Easter cookies to give to loved ones and friends. Most everyone appreciates handmade gifts, especially when it's a treasured family recipe.

If you are looking to magnify your satisfaction of Easter this year, take part in creating wonderfully decorated Easter cookies.
