Adding Sparkle to Textured Cookies (Technique)

Textured cookie dough is an awesome way to add dimension to cookies with very little effort. Now you can even add a little color and/or some sparkle to the beautiful texture.

As shown in previous blog posts, you only have to roll a texture mat directly into the dough in order to mold a texture into it.

Once the cookies are baked and cooled, you can add a little color by using "watered-down" color gel. For these particular cookies, I used my "water colors" made from The Painted Box's methods. Check out her YouTube video HERE
Add a drop or two of color to your palette and then brush it onto the textured cookie. Easy!

To add sparkle, brush on some dry SugarArt sterling pearl dust (Brilliant Sparkle used on these cookies).

Beautiful and yet so simple.....

For some relatively easy and quick cookies that go over-the-top in texture, 
try coloring the dough (knead color gel into the dough until you achieve the desired color)
and then rolling a texture mat over the top of the dough before cutting it out.

It is truly amazing how intricate these cookies look
and yet how easy it was to achieve the detail.

Happy texturizing with love!
