It's that time of year to really be thankful for our blessings. Here's how to make these sweet little pilgrim boys and girls: (All icing is royal icing)- Using a #2 tip, outline ears and bottom of the faces onto cookie with fleshtone colored icing. (AmeriColor Copper/Fleshtone)
- Using a #2 tip, outline hair with yellow icing, meeting up with flesh outline. Use the same icing to outline cookie edge. (Spectrum Lemon Yellow mixed with AmeriColor Egg Yellow)
- Outline pilgrim hat with a #3 tip, meeting with pilgrim hair. (Spectrum Super Black)
- Thin fleshtone icing to the consistency of syrup. Cover with a damp cloth and let sit several minutes. Stir gently to pop bubbles that have formed on top. Pour into a squeeze bottle and fill in the pilgrim faces. Use a toothpick to coax the icing into all corners and to edges.
- Using the same method as above, fill in yellow hair and black hat.
- Thin white royal icing and fill in remainder of the cookie.
- Let dry for 1 hour.
- Using a #1 tip, dot eyes on the faces.
- Using a #1 tip, add a buckle to the hat and detail to hair.
- Let dry overnight. (This is a must for the next step.)
- With food coloring pens, add a mouth and "give thanks", or personalization would be nice here for place cards. (AmeriColor Gourmet Writer pens)
Happy Thanksgiving!
