Who is your Wonder Woman? Mom, wife, sister, aunt, cousin, daughter, friend? I bet you have one.
I've always loved Wonder Woman and when I was younger, I dreamed of wearing a Wonder Woman outfit to a costume party.
{Now, at age 41, I don't see that happening....unless Wonder Woman starts donning capri pants and cardigans.}
And is it just me, or does that W look an awful lot like the Whataburger logo? Maybe I *could* be Wonder Woman after all. (And if you don't live in the south and don't know Whataburger, I'm sorry. Really, really sorry.)
The cookie shape itself was made from using 3 cutters I had onhand: bikini top, onesie and a circle for cutting.
First, I started with the bikini tops and the onesies.
The bikini top as is was a little "busty" for the onesie, so I performed a little reconstructive surgery.
Then, the top of the onesie was chopped off...
...and I made a cut out so that the top would fit.
I used the edge of a circle cutter to nip her in at the waist. (If only life were so easy.)
And then, put the pieces together.
{Hint: I always freeze my cut-outs for 5-10 minutes before baking.}
For decorating, you'll need:
- royal icing tinted with AmeriColor
Super Red, Royal Blue, Egg/Lemon Yellow, Super Black and a bit of Bright White,
- disposable icing bags,
- squeeze bottles
,
- toothpicks,
- #1 & 2 tips and couplers,
- star sprinkles or white royal icing to make the stars
With a #2 tip, outline the shape in black.
{I originally started with a #3, because I wanted the outline to really show, but it was too thick. If you make a mistake on a cookie, scrape it off and try again. :) Toothpicks are your friend.}
Thin the red, yellow and blue icings with water until it is the consistency of thick syrup. Let sit for several minutes covered with a damp dish towel. Uncover and stir gently with a silicone spatula to pop air bubbles that have risen to the surface. Transfer to squeeze bottles.
Flood the cookie with the thinned icing.
Let sit at least one hour.
With a #2 tip, add the black detail. Go over the "W" and the belt in black as well.
Let dry for several hours. If you are a good planner, add the white star sprinkles you have onhand with a bit of royal icing. If you are NOT a good planner, ahem, pipe the stars with white royal icing.
OH! I almost forgot! I made the Invisible Jet, too!
And and you must (MUST!)....go take a peek at Gail's (of One Tough Cookie) superhero cookie CAKE! Isn't that the coolest?!?
Who is YOUR Wonder Woman?
{Happy, happy Mother's Day to all of you moms (Wonder Women) out there!}
*Love* those! I've always loved Wonder Woman too...I used to put tin foil wraps on my wrists like her bullet proof bracelets! LOL!
ReplyDeleteThese are precious just like YOU!
Happy Mother's Day sweet friend!
These are AMAZING!!!! How wonderful would they be to surprise my mom tomorrow ?! Thanks for the inspiration!!
ReplyDeleteLOVE THESE I HAD WONDER WOMAN UNDEROOS!!!!!
ReplyDeleteok, I want YOU to work wonders on my body like that! lol
ReplyDeleteHappy Mother's Day Bridget!!
LOVE the cookies
Happy Mother's Day! I think YOU are WONDER WOMAN!
ReplyDeleteI ALWAYS have loved WONDER WOMAN and even wore a WONDER WOMAN costume and had WONDER WOMAN pjs when I was a kid! LOVE the cookies:)
What a fun post! As usual, great idea! Happy Mother's Day to a wonderful woman...you!
ReplyDeleteI always wanted one of those invisible jet, and a set of those cuffs/wristbands, and of course the lasso of truth. She was tough and cool and knew how to fix hair, all in one.
ReplyDeleteThese are precious and I am sure alot of Wonder Women will appreciate them tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteYou are my wonder woman! Look at those cookies - they're...wonderful!!
ReplyDeleteHope you have a spectacular day tomorrow!
You are SO creative and clever! Amazing how you put those cookie shapes together, and frosted them so expertly! Am I allowed to want Wonder Woman cookies for myself (ha-ha)?
ReplyDeleteYou are amazing, Bridget! You're quite the wonder woman yourself.
ReplyDeleteHave a beautiful Mother's Day.
Those are so great! Love your scraped off cookie ~ an all too familiar site to me! Glad to know you have those moments too!
ReplyDeleteYOU are a wonder woman, Bridget! My favorite was the invisible jet ;)
ReplyDeleteHappy Mother's Day

These are absolutely precious! I must say that my MOM is my Wonder Woman...and not just because mother's day is tomorrow. She's survived breast cancer and being run over by a drunk driver, then having spine surgery! I would say she has some supernatural powers.
ReplyDeleteHa! Invisible jet - I love your sense of humor. Happy Mother's Day!
ReplyDeleteLOVE!! The jet made me giggle too! Happy Mother's Day, enjoy it all!!
ReplyDeleteWith a cookie like that--the answer would be you!
ReplyDeleteP.S. I was *really* inspired to start and "invisible cookie blog." Click here ______ to see it!

I love wonder woman too! I was so excited when MAC Cosmetics did a WW series a few months back.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea for a Mother's gift!

Super CUTE!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was a Flight Attendant, I had her on a flight once and ask her how it felt flying on a plane that wasn't invisible! CHEESY..LOL
Wonder Woman TV show, coming soon... and she's wearing pants!
ReplyDeleteMore fitting for such a powerful lady (because really, the leotard look is not practical for crime fighting)
I always love your cookies so much!
"SUPER" cute!
ReplyDeleteYes! It does look like the WHATABURGER logo! Chophouse Steakburger! Yumm!
ReplyDeleteSUPERB!!!! I love Wonder Woman and I LOVE your page!
ReplyDeleteHappy Mother's Day
I have a question: why do you always use disposable bags? Is it the convenience of clean-up (throw away after use) or you don't like cleaning the reusable bags that you can dedicate for royal icing use?
ReplyDeleteI usually use parchment bags for royal icing but I don't like not being able to change tips without making a big mess. I am considering on buying new bags for royal icing use only.
What do you think?
Love them...so cute!!!!! I love your creativity. You are my "home" page and you make me smile everyday when I get on my computer. Thank you
ReplyDeleteThe details on the jet are exquisite.
ReplyDeleteThose are seriously awesome super [hero] sweet treats.
Those are awesome!!!
ReplyDeleteMy Mom is my wonderwoman. I wrote about her here http://carriethinkstoomuch.blogspot.com/2011/05/my-mother-my-friend.html
Pure genius! YOU are cookie Wonder Woman! Hope you ate the tops of the onsies :) Happy Mother's Day! and ps-I have learned that, thank goodness, WW is a myth!
ReplyDeleteWhat a clever repurpose of the cutters!!!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Mothers' Day to a WonderWoman of a mom, and cookie pro!!
I think women in general are Wonder Woman; juggling family, careers and yes..blogs!
ReplyDeleteYour creativity in pulling together those two pieces is the best and the end result is even better.
Happy Mother's Day!
You are so hilarious. These are awesome!! I'll post a link on edible crafts :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Mother's Day B~ Hope you get to wear your WW outfit today :)
ReplyDelete♥ Whataburger, lol. That's one of the reasons I need cookiees cutter lipo lol. These are adorable! I love the black scraped cookie. Talk about familiar.
ReplyDeleteSo, um, perhaps I'm the only one to notice, but I clicked over because I thought for sure you used a naughty cookie cutter for these. Might make the dough cutting process easier. ;)
ReplyDeleteWow, these look a lot like, uhm....naughty cookies hahah
ReplyDeleteHey, do you think you could use one of those cookie cutters and make my waist nip in like that? And portion my body just right?
ReplyDeleteHappy Mother's Day, sweet friend!
Very, very clever bit of cookie dough engineering Bridget. These turned out great! Happy Mother's Day to you. Enjoy being treated on this special day like the special woman you are.
ReplyDeleteOh I can not wait to get home from college life Thursday and take over my parents kitchen to make these! Thanks for the tips!

ReplyDeleteSurprise, my Mom's my Wonder Woman. (:

ReplyDeleteSuper cute cookies! Love how you invented a new shape using 3 cutters you already had! And yes I am very familiar with the Whataburger logo...we have one of those just down the street from us in Mobile, AL. Hope you had an awesome Mother's Day!

ReplyDeleteThose cookies are awesome - what a great idea. I love wonder woman!
ReplyDeleteI came over to say how great your yellow piano is and I see these Wonder Woman cookies and now I am completely mesmerized. It's like you've hypnotized me with your cookies and I can't stop scrolling through and seeing what else you've got up your magician's sleeve.
