I'm new to CC and want to learn how to make the beautiful "sugar cookies" that I see on the font of magazines etc.! My daughter is in competition cheer and when we are at cheer competitions we always see these amazing sugar cookies on a stick with beautiful icing. They are wrapped in a clear bag and tied with cute ribbon.

How do I make these oh so popular cookies?

I need AS MANY details as ya'll can give!

TIA

Ash

Sassy, I have a simple cheer bouquet posted, their names on a megaphone. just search cheer, there are some amazing ones on CC. Just scroll through this forum, all kinds of advice, and Antonia74 has a great cookie tutorial (I think it's called) here on CC. Have Fun!

are the ones for sale from Cookie Cottage in Red Oak?

Sassysweetz, get the book "Cookie Craft" by Valerie Peterson and Janice Fryer. It has the best sugar cookie recipe. It has all the basic and some great tips. Almost everything I know I learned from this book.
Just beware that it is time consuming and can become addictive. Good luck.

By the way what part of TX are you in? I am in Keller just north of Ft. Worth in the DFW metroplex.

ALVARGA, I've been thinking about buying the book Cookie Craft. I think you just help me to decide to go ahead and get it!
