No, these cookies aren't wet. I used the Wilton Color Flow mix, which I just love. You just add a little of the mix to powdered sugar and some water and this is what happens. Some day I will do a whole post just on this stuff because you can do so much fun stuff with it. Today I added peppermint extract and piled 3 different sized cookies on top of each other for something a little fun.
These are especially for my 5 year old daughter. She wanted more and more sprinkles so I rolled the dough into balls and rolled them in as many sprinkles as I could get to stick to the dough. Festive, don't you think?!
These ones were really fun. I rolled the dough into balls and rolled them in candy canes that have been through my food processor. They were perfectly pepperminty and cute too!
Dorie's sugar cookies were pretty good, but I think I'll stick to my Betty Crocker packaged mix the next time I do sugar cookies. She just never fails me with her sugar cookies! Thanks to Thanks to Ulrike at Kuchenlatein.
Don't forget to check out the blogroll and buy Dorie's book for her recipe.

I love your different versions! The icied ones are just gorgeous :) I did something similar, decorated in several different ways, overall loved the recipe
Amazing! I love the triple deckers! Gotta try that Wilton mix... it gave a really nice shine to your icing! I'm impressed!
I'll have to look for that color flow stuff...your cookies look amazing! Great to see how many different directions you can take this recipe.
All of your cookies looked terrific. The first ones were very pretty and I loved the idea of the peppermint ones! Great job!

Oh, the Wilton color flow mix looks like it'd be so much fun - can't wait for that post!
I love your cookie variations! I can't pick a favorite they all look so delicious and pretty!
I love these! That last one is perfect flavor.
Thanks for the tip on the Wilton Color Flow - your cookies look fantastic, I love the shine on the frosted ones and while I'm not a fan of peppermint myself, I think the crushed candy canes were an inspired idea and quite seasonal.
Oh, love some peppermint. These are so cute!
these look really nice. Seems you went crazy with decorations . Well done :)
Honestly, some of the best cookies from TWD this week!
Hi there, I just had to finally comment. Your cookies are beautiful, and your cake (up above) turned out wonderfully! I'm a Wilton instructor, and have a small cake decorating business on the side, and just wanted to encourage you: I think you're a natural, meaning you could teach yourself if you really wanted to to do fondant cakes, etc. You already have so much experience with sweets as it is. That's not to say that you wouldn't enjoy taking the classes (they are truly fun classes). Just as something fun and quick to try, make cookies from a chocolate cake mix, the oil and water, but sans eggs. Using the Wilton 'cookie icing' which with a little orange extract added, drizzle it on top. You'll get the most delicious orange creamsicle and fudge cookies possible! Thanks for your blog!
