Notes
Pro Tips
- Icing hardens as it dries, so press on eyes, nose and buttons while the icing is still wet so they adhere well.
- Let the base icing dry slightly before moving cookies to a new wax paper sheet. This prevents a messy transfer.
- Let the decorated cookies dry for at least 6–8 hours (or overnight) to ensure the icing and sparkle gel set completely.
- Place the cookies on a wire rack once dry to make sure the bottom of the cookies aren’t sticky.
