Football Cookies

by Carrie on January 31, 2009

You can’t make a bunch of cookies without making sugar cookies they just go, and since I made them for a superbowl party I decided to make them into little footballs. My brown frosting wasn’t as dark as I would of liked but it worked.

I used this sugar cookie recipe. But used the recipe below for frosting them. This was my first time working with royal icing and it was very easy to use, and I like how hard it gets and sets.

Royal Icing (From: Wilton)

Ingredients:

  • 3 tablespoons Meringue Powder
  • 4 cups (about 1 lb.) confectioners’ sugar
  • 6 tablespoons warm water

Beat all ingredients until icing forms peaks (7-10 minutes at low speed with a heavy-duty mixer, 10-12 minutes at high speed with a hand-held mixer).

Makes: About 3 cups of icing.
