He has a sister now, too. :)
(Although, I did attempt to immortalize him in cookies once.)
These cookies are SO easy...the perfect treat for any dog lover in your life.
To make the dotty Scottie cookies, you'll need:
- Scottie-shaped (...this link will lead you to the cutter) sugar cookies (...this link will lead you to the recipe)
- royal icing, divided and tinted with AmeriColor Super Black, Deep Pink, Bright White, Egg Yellow, Super Red (or the colors of your choosing)
- couplers and tips: #2, #1
- disposable icing bags
- squeeze bottles
- toothpicks
Thin the pink, black, and white icings with water, a bit at a time, stirring with a silicone spatula, until it is the consistency of a thick syrup. You'll want to drop a "ribbon" of icing back into the bowl and have it disappear in a count of "one thousand one, one thousand two." Four is too thick, one is too thin. Count of 2-3 is good. Cover with a damp dishcloth and let sit for several minutes.
Stir gently with a silicone spatula to pop and large air bubbles that have formed. Pour into squeeze bottles.
Let the cookies dry 1 hour.
Let the cookies dry, uncovered, 6-8 hours or overnight.
Cat cookies? Check. Dog cookies? Check.

Now I know how to cute-ify my black lab cookies for my husband for Valentine's Day~I think she(our lab, Riley) is his true love~haha!

So great!
ReplyDeleteI love polka dots ... I love scotties ... the best dog cookies ever :)
ReplyDeleteSO cute! I think chicken cookies should be next! I love me some chickens! :)
ReplyDeleteBridget,
ReplyDeleteWhat cute cookies you make! I have tried making them (the cookies themselves are great..no issues there), but I really struggle with the frosting. Seems I can't get the right consistency to do the flooding. I have some adorable grandkids and friends I would love to make cookies for special occasions but I steer away from it because of the frosting. Wished you would host webinars or youtube or come to Mpls to do demos...I'd be the first in line. What is your secret? Am I giving up too easily?
Helpless in Mpls....

ReplyDeleteAW! Those are the cutest cookies I have seen in the recent times. I am sure my son would love it. I am amazed that you got the perfect shape for the polka. There is definitely a magic in your hand. I am going to try to get it right :-)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE these cookies. I don't own a scottie (or even a dog) or know someone who does, but I might have to make these cookies anyway:)
ReplyDeleteThese are so adorable. My best friend would love these since she has a scottish terrier.
ReplyDeleteUgh! This are soooooo cute!!Can't wait to give them a try!
ReplyDeleteOh my god, I'm going to HAVE to make these into sausage dog cookies. What's better than combining my love of them and sugary food! Amazing!
ReplyDeleteThese are so incredible darling - love the colors too!!!!
ReplyDeleteWoof! Woof! So cute!
ReplyDeleteScotties are our school mascot! These would be a cute surprise for the first day of school or at a graduation party.
ReplyDeleteMade these- worked out great. Only issue is that after drying the icing seemed to lose its lustre. They looked noticeably more dull than they did at first. Tips?
ReplyDeleteThat's the nature of royal icing, unfortunately. I find if I dry them under an oscillating fan for an hour or so, they keep some of their shine.
