Batman

These cookies were so fun to make.  I printed the batman logo and then traced the bat with an edible marker on to each individual cookie and then iced it.  There were a few steps involved, but I love the precise look in the end.  Freehanding this would have given me a headache!  They are for a wonderful repeat customer.  I did his bowling cookies last year! 

Happy Birthday Gavin!

Yummy

I tried this easy chocolate cookie recipe today, since I was short on time but was having a strong cookie baking craving.  Straight from Sugarbelle's latest post these are seriously easy, quick and delicious.  Plus, I love the flavor resemblence to cupcakes.  It could almost be a cupcake cookie.  One thing I did notice is that if you overbake or underbake there is a big difference.  My first batch was very moist and chewy and the second batch I cooked a couple minutes longer and it turned out very light, slightly crunchy.  Delicious either way.

Valentines are coming!

I had MLK day off and was able to do some sketching and baking!  I'm loving robots lately, so I made some robot valentines.  I think they are almost too cute to eat!  I found a lot of inspiration on Pinterest.  Wow, does that site make it so much easier to find ideas, inspiration and be creative!  So here is some valentines love, a few weeks early.
