angel cookies







I only have made a few of these so far--just enough to take to my dad--but I hope to make more.

So... here are the cookies just baked. You can tell some got rolled thinner than others. You can maybe see that some of them have heads tipped up, some down, some with wings out, some with wing close to the body, etc. I also flipped two when I put them on the cookie sheet, which I don't usually do, but might try doing more of, because then they can face in different directions.



Here they are with white frosting on them. When the frosting dries, you can paint them.



And here they are painted. They've been rearranged here, because I started to stack them in a box to take to my dad's and then remembered I wanted to take the picture.



We ate these up really quickly! But I have more in the fridge to decorate.

... It's very misty today. It's a good day for being tree tips, all vague and interphase.
Happy December 27th.

Thank you so much for sharing these. Mom has a whole very large pickle jar full of cookie cutters. I know there was a star and a tree and a bell and holly...still trying to remember more.

I like that image.

Your angels have good faces.

These are so beautiful, and if they are scrumptious to boot, count me in. I love the scope for endless variety. :D

"I get a shiver in my bones just thinking about the weather..." Love the 10,000 Maniacs Unplugged album. Also an appropriate song for us today - it's alternately raining and sleeting with gusty winds, and I'm going to have to head out to work in it in a few hours. Lucky for me I have a good umbrella!

Oh and the angel cookies are adorable too. :)

After your post about the cookie cutters, I'm so glad you shared these pics of the cookies! Each one as unique as I imagine true angels.

Some of them look like medieval paintings.

The undecorated angels look like the Weeping Angels from Doctor Who.
If you ate one you would be sent back in time 100 years.
The decorated angels look joyful.

Your angels are so pretty mA! I especially like the one with the red and green garland in their hair (as hair?) and at their waist.

We used to just mix food colouring with egg yolk to paint sugar cookies, are you using something else? Your lines are so fine and non-bleedy.
