Easter is here and it is one of my favorite holidays to bake for!
Last year's Easter Cookies were some of my favorites and I like this years cookies even more. I love how colorful all the cookies look together. They are almost too pretty eat...almost!
I love decorating with royal icing, but I one of the most important lessons I have learned when decorating with royal icing is to stay organized and plan ahead. I made about six dozen cookies and had six different shapes, plus variations in colors amongst the shapes. In order to keep my sanity I had to make sure I knew which colors each cookies were going to be decorated and to try to work in batches of the same color together.
A new addition for this year is the eggs with the chicks inside and the carrots. I don't know why I like the carrots so much, but the simplicity of them looks great juxtaposed with the decorative eggs.
Happy Easter!
