I am making apple cookies for my colleagues and some have a "bite" taken out of them. I do not want the red from the apples to bleed with the white from the bites so I was wondering which I should do first. I thought the white but I want to be sure. Thanks for any help you can offer!

i see what you mean -- i would color the top and side edges of the cookie apple red and leave the bite plain uniced cookie -- so red icing all over includign the edges except the bite is plain cookie

you gonna pop a stick in some of them and dip them in caramel and nuts? actually just smear on some caramel not really dip them --

ASo you want a red cookie with a bite into the white flesh exposed?

Just pipe a border around each part of the cookie, I would probably flood the white first, let it set up, and then flood the red part. But I'm no cookie genius!

Love K8's idea of caramel and nuts though....

A bite in to the red flesh is exactly what I want to do but I love the caramel idea too. Now, I am conflicted. Maybe I will try both. Thanks!

AYou could do a mix of both cookie types, or you could add the caramel to your iced cookies, putting the caramel in the opposite corner to the bite. Yum, K8, you're killing me, now I want caramel for breakfast!
