Shamrock Cookies
Five lessons learned while making cute little shamrock cookies: 1. Despite rolling dough between wax paper for ease of removal, note there will be no ease of removal. |
2. "Chill dough until it is firm enough to roll" means waaaaay longer than an hour.
3. Sprinkles go on before baking, else the effect will be similar to trying to stack grapes on a hill.
4. "Cook 9 minutes" = too long.
5. Even if the cookies on the plate never quite measure up to the cookies in my imagination, I am still a sucker for cute little seasonal cookie cutters (only $2!! At Ross!!).
Happy St. Patrick's Day.

Those are adorable, and I'm sure the extra work makes them even better. ;)
Cute! I need to get my hands on one of those Shamrock cutters. Thanks for stopping by my blog, Lynn. I'm looking forward to exploring yours. The book sounds good too.
Oh these are so cute! Love those cookie cutters!
adorable, perfect for the holiday!
ha, what a great post on the adventures of scratch cooking. looks like your end product was well worth it!
Seriously I did not know the sprinkles go on before the oven.
The Bumbles, neither did I. Guess I've only used sprinkles on cakes after they've been frosted. Live and learn ;)
It's times like this that I wish I wasn't such a lousy baker, Lynn.
Those cookies are absolutely adorable.
Thank you so much for sharing...
