Last week, I received from a lovely friend Valentine cookies decorated with fondant. Since my last chocolate cake, I thought I could have fun this time with my restless assistant and make some cookies with her.
For the recipe, I used Martha Stewart's sugar cookies but I replaced the vanille with orange and lemon juice and added the zest of one orange.
I think I got carried away more than her... endless possibilities!!!
We started with basic shapes, such butterflies and flowers, then I went to look for the food coloring and I just wanted to paint, draw, mmmm the outcome was not that bad considering I did all of it with a toothpick, didn't have a brush for this. ;)
Then,
when completely cool, time to let your inner child out! I had basic
colors of fondant which I rolled and cut with the same cookie cutters,
and make some dots to give some texture ..

Fun little project and the most important part, my pioja loved doing this!
My next project, it involves italian meringue, lemon curd and a torche ...
