Flowers for MOM Decorated Cookie Collection

I know, I know.......flowers again. 
But I'm a mom.....and I LOVE flowers. So it makes sense to emphasize them for Mothers Day. :)

It's the season for planting all the pretty flowers in the landscaping and hanging pots of them on the porch and even grabbing a bunch of them at the store to take to your beloved.

To all the moms......I hope your day is bright and cheery with all the love and appreciate throw your way on this special day. 

And thank you God for our precious mothers and for motherhood in general. What a blessing you have given us! ❤️

 
 

Spring Bloom Decorated Cookie Collection

The change of all the seasons is always such a special time of year,
but after a cold bleak winter, spring is most definitely welcomed.

What better way to celebrate spring than to observe every thing blooming all around!

 

Basket of Spring Flowers Decorated Cookie (Tutorial)

With this awesome basketweave mold, it's fairly easy to make basket cookies just in time to "fill" them with spring flowers.

Place the mold face down over sugar cookie dough.
Using a rolling pin over the top of the mold, impress the dough with basketweave.
Take the cutter of your choice (I chose a tall rectangle) to cut out the cookie.
Feel free to leave the top portion of the cookie smooth for adding flowers. (see photo below)
Bake and cool the cookies as normal.

Cut out flowers using mini cookie cutters. I like to make the dough fairly thin so the flowers are not too overpowering on top of the basket cookie. Decorate these beauties as desired.

Brush chestnut dust over the basketweave portion of the molded cookies.

Add a greenery background on top of the basket by outlining and flooding it with green glaze.

Adhere the flowers on top of the basket with more green glaze. Add additional flowers and vines as desired.
