HELLO KITTY® SUGAR COOKIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Make cookie dough as directed on pouch for cutout cookies. Roll dough 1/4-inch thick. Use 2-inch round cutter to cut 36 cookies from dough, rolling and rerolling as necessary. Place rounds 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Use remaining dough to form small triangles to make ears on cookies. Press 2 triangles onto each cookie to make a cat face.
• Bake 6 to 8 minutes or until cookies are just golden brown around edges. Transfer to cooling rack to cool completely.
• Use frosting to frost cooled cookies. Use black decorator gel to make two eyes on each cookie. Place one of the round yellow candy sprinkles in the center of each of the cookies to make a nose.
• Unroll licorice wheels, and cut six small pieces of licorice for each cat cookie. Place licorice on cookies to form whiskers.
• Place one fruit snack bow on each cookie. Serve immediately, or cover loosely with plastic wrap until ready to serve.

KITTENCAL'S BUTTERY CUT-OUT SUGAR COOKIES W/ ICING THAT HARDENS

Steps:

• For cookies; in a large bowl combine butter with sugar, eggs, vanilla and almond extract; beat using an electric mixer on high speed until light and fluffy.
• In another bowl combine the flour with baking powder, baking soda and salt; gradually stir into the butter mixture until well blended.
• Cover bowl with plastic wrap and chill for 2 hours.
• Set oven to 400°F.
• Line cookie sheets with parchment paper (do not grease cookie sheets use parchment paper only).
• On a very lightly floured surface roll out the dough into about 1/4-inch thickness.
• Cut into desired shapes using cookie cutters.
• Place cookies 2-inches apart on cookie sheet.
• Bake 4-6 minutes.
• Remove cookies to wire racks to cool completely before icing.
• For the frosting; in a small bowl mix the confectioners sugar with milk (start with 1-2 tablespoons, you will likely need more milk for the perfect spreading consistency).
• Beat in corn syrup and almond extract until the icing is smooth and glossy (if the icing is too thick add in a small amount more of corn syrup).
• Divide into as many separate bowls as you wish for different colours.
• Add in food colouring until desired intensity is achieved.
• Paint the icing over the cookies using a brush, or dip edges of cookies into icing.
• Allow to set on waxed paper.
