Isn’t it wonderful how…
…a disposable piping bag…
…and a little tempered chocolate…
…..and a sprinkle of icing sugar…
…can turn a boring butter cookie into a festive treat?
(I caught Big Boy with one of these in each hand yesterday, taking alternate bites from each cookie…)
I need to learn how to do this. I could impress everyone with these at Christmas time. The perfect gift for teachers and the neighbors and the gardener and the post lady ….. the list goes on. Can I book a lesson now?
They do look Christmassy, don’t they? You don’t need a lesson, just a piping bag. I’m sure it’s something a certain small girl would just love to help with.. :)
the subtlety of these things is the key. Not too sweet but sweet enough… not too almondy but almondy enough. first class Mrs C. I’ll be sitting down to chomp on one tonight with some ginger/honey tea.
Glad you liked them, Dredgey! I thought they might appeal to your small people as well…
i really like how you’ve personalised the top of your blog with your photos. looks great. surprised you didnt use any from your “colours of my kitchen” shots.
Played around with them, but they didn’t quite work..
