What I Made Wednesday ~ Cross Cookies

Over the Christmas break, a friend of a friend needed cross shaped cookies for for her babies baptism. I had never made crosses before so I went to Hobby Lobby and bought the cookie cutter. I was excited because it was long and shaped. But once I started decorating them, I realized the shape of the cross made icing them the way I wanted a little more difficult. I use Sweetopia's sugar cookie and royal icing recipes. Her cookies are DELISH!!! With 5 sticks of butter, how could they not be?!?

This is the final product. I think they could have been better, but I always think that. The mom loved them and said they were a hit at the Baptismal party.

I think I will try to find a plain, straight cross cookie cutter. But, at the end of the day, I may think they do not look good, but I do know they taste great!! (I get to eat the mess ups ;)
