Easter Bonnets

IMG_7684

I’ll just call them Cookie Hats since Easter is now over. I made these this weekend but you can certainly do them for other occasions like Mothers Day. Showers, too. You can change the colors for different themes. Any Red Hat Society peeps out there? These would be fun. I can also see these for a Kentucky Derby party – you could get really creative with them. Or forget the flowers, paint them with silver luster dust and turn them into flying saucers.

I found the instructions for these cuties in a book called Cookie Swap.

IMG_7736

Here’s what they are supposed to look like. Gorgeous, huh! These are made using royal icing to coat the hat and pipe the perfect little dots. Fondant is used for the flowers and the bands.

Now, I didn’t have extra hours to wait for royal icing to dry when I made these, so I improvised. But, if time weren’t an issue, I’d go royal.

IMG_7691

Instead, I covered the sugar cookie hats in tinted and rolled fondant…

IMG_7654

And used sugar pearls to add detail. To help them stay in place, I used the pearls to press indentations around the hat. Then, I put a tiny amount of water on the sugar pearl and placed it in position.

IMG_7702

Here they are with and without the pearls.

The base of the sugar cookie hats should be rolled thin before baking and the top part of the hat should be thicker to accommodate the fondant band. I used the shortbread sugar cookie recipe in the book, but feel free to use your own recipe and decorate.

Note: To get the fondant and cookie shapes to match in size, I re-cut the cookies with the cutter when I took them out of the oven and while they were still warm because they had spread a little.

You can attach the fondant to the cookies with a little bit of icing and you can attach the fondant flowers with a little dab of water.

Fondant Flowers.

All I can say is I heart my flower blossom plunger cutter. Say that fast three times.

IMG_7657

I bought it a while ago and this is the first time I’ve used it.

IMG_7660

You can cut shapes out of fondant and by pressing down on the plunger, you can make center indentations… or not.

You can also press the plunger into the fondant and remove the flower shape to then press and release onto a sponge.

This will give the flowers a curved shape.

But, without a sponge handy I had to improvise again.

So I grabbed the paper towel roll nearby and laid it on its side.

IMG_7662

See how they curve when you press them into a soft surface and release? If you wanted, you could also add sugar pearls to the centers or pipe with icing.

IMG_7723

These were fun to use. Now I need to get my hands on a little leaf plunger cutter to round out the look.

IMG_7703

IMG_7748

Cookie Swap is full of recipes, decorating and displaying ideas.

Like these….

IMG_7740

Yes, this is a cookie. A ridiculously beautiful cookie. Seriously, who does that? Amazing!

IMG_7741

And these are in the book, too. Love them! Looooooove them. But, I’d have to find someone to pipe those dots on for me. Mine would never look that perfect.

In addition to really pretty sweets, the book also has cute cookies to make you swoon.

IMG_7743

Like these hamburger and hotdog shaped macarons. Dying.

IMG_7744

And these watermelon cookies. Oh and umm, the lemons? Those are cookies, too. I know. Craziness.

Want to try your hand at some spectacular cookies?

  1. so cute! i love that baking can produce such beautiful art!!!

  2. These look amazing. I made your Easter Basket cupcakes for Easter and they were a huge hit. Thanks for all the wonderful ideas

  3. Oh, I love cookies. But I’m more adventurous in the taste field (they MUST taste great!) than the aesthetic field.

  4. I’ve been a taste tester my whole life…it’s time to take it to the next level and this is just the book to help get me there!

  5. Too cute not to enter! (the cookies, not me)

  6. I’d love to become and adventurous cookie maker! These cookies are too cute, the book looks fab, too!

  7. I wish I could be more adventurous and do try, but my oven fails. Moving soon and hopefully becoming way more adventurous without destroying cookies :P

  8. adventurous cookie maker all the way! :)

  9. usually a taster but trying to change that!

  10. My 13-year-old daughter is the adventurous cookie maker. Mom is the content taster!

  11. I wish I could say adventurous…but I’m a better taste tester than cookie maker!

  12. Why do you have to be one or the other?
    I love to bake and I tire of making the same thing. So I tend to try out a lot of different things. And then I get to eat them.Yum

  13. I am a cookie baker, although not as adventurous or clever as the cookies from that book…but I would love to try! Plus, I have one great big cookie-lovin’ taster at home that would love to taste-test my cookie experiments.

  14. (not-afraid-of-the-many-failures) Adventurous Cookie make!

  15. I make cupcakes more than cookies, but I’m inspired! Now to find the time… Keep up the great content on your site. I so look forward to seeing what you’re up to!

  16. I’ll have to admit – I’m not very adventerous when it comes to baking cookies. I get so intimidated! But I’m slowly working on it!! I just recently made a layered cheesecake!! Talk about hard work!

  17. I love baking and I love cookbooks! I hope I win.

  18. Awww! I’m so in love with your cookies, they’re fabulous!!! I’m not a pro but I tried I making some decorated cookies last Christmas and it was fun, fun, fun! I’d like to do some more. Thanks for giving me lots ideas and inspiration. Winning that book would be a treat!

  19. Great, no another project I just HAVE to do! I think they will be adorable for Mother’s Day. Another idea is for a Red Hat party!

  20. Wow… I’m relatively new to decorating, but I’m a little less intimidated by the idea of working with cookies than cakes (if you screw up one, just keep trying!)

  21. Definitely adventurous! I love to veer from recipes and make them my own. :) My husband is my taste tester.

  22. I’m a bit of both.
    I love being creative when making cookies but I also love eating them.

  23. Those cookies look like so much fun! I love to experiment with new cookie recipes!

  24. Those hamburger macarons are adorable!!!!

  25. Not very adventurous…yet. Have a small kitchen and too much clutter in the way. Would love to learn more though.

  26. Wow, just when I thought I was ready to conquer the macaroon, they come out with those beauties. That is amazing…macaroons here I come!

  27. OMG they are the most adorable ever, and those hamburger macaroon….

  28. I am somewhere in between…depends on the day!!

  29. Adventurous, they just don’t turn out that cute!

  30. Content cookie tester. I like tasting them more. I have made some before, but none as cute as these little bonnets! :)

  31. Definitely an adventurous baker. But I also love the taste testing too!

  32. I’m a daring cookie maker! this book looks awesome!!

  33. These are so amazing! Love the Easter bonnets! Not so adventerous on the cookies as on the “pupcakes” as they are called in my house!

  34. Great. First I bought Hello, Cupcake! and have been working through those beauties for the various occasions my 11 year old produces. Now this book? I’m going to have to get it one way (winning it from your blog) or another (spending money on ANOTHER baking book, just when I said purchasing your book would be the last…)

    Thanks SO much! lol!

  35. I’m not an adventurous cookie maker but I’d like to be. I’ve done a few adventurous bakes and done pretty good. Perhaps it’s time to branch out. Definitely a taste tester too though, what fun is it if you can’t eat your creation!

  36. Those are adorable!!

  37. I am so banned from any more projects by DH but those are too cute to resist

  38. when it comes to cookies, I am definitely a content taste tester. My cookies never come out looking like it should. :-/

  39. What wonderful site! I was linked here off of the knot from a fellow future bride, in reference to the cake balls. I myself am an adventurous cookie baker, always trying new things :)
    I am seeking new cookie ideas as a side to the wedding cake at my wedding in june, and perhaps for the shower in April. I love to bake!

  40. defiantly an adventurous baker in general. i love being in the kitchen… i just hate the cleaning part lol

  41. Those are amazing cookies! I’d love to win a copy of the book. I mostly cake decorate but want to learn cookie decorating too!

  42. I love making cookies! I’m still practicing decorating, but love trying all different flavours!

  43. Adventurous cookie maker. Sometimes they work and are pretty, sometimes they just taste good and sometimes I chock it up to a learning experience.

  44. I am a pretty adventurous cookie baker…. I’ll mix and match and add things like I’m a mad scientist! :)

  45. Oh, what a beautiful book. I’d like to say I’m a creative cookie maker, but I know mine wouldn’t turn out like those in the book. I stick mostly with quilting, but I love to surprise my family with little beauties from the kitchen now and again. BTW, I think I like your interpretation of the hats better than the ones in the book. Cute!

  46. I try to be adventurous with baking but my favorite results always end up being the tried and true basics.

  47. I am definitely the adventurous baker. I just found your site a few weeks ago and have tried several ideas for Easter and I was Cookie Queen for the day. I made the cake pops, fondant bunny ear cupcakes and the bonnets. I love baking and trying new things and my grandchildren think there is not challenge beyond my baking capabilities. Do I dare tell them about Bakerella!!!! I love your site, you give me so much inspiration.
    Georgeann

  48. I’m a total adventurer, I will try anything!

  49. I am more of an adventurous cookie maker … though those cookies look cumbersome! I definitely like to cook for others, so I’m happy to have them taste test! :)

  50. Love trying new recipes…especially for cookies! Like those fun little wedding cake cookies! I’m pretty sure I’m going to have to make those for an upcoming bridal shower!

  51. I gotta admit, as much as I love to try new things and make cuties like these, I am terrible at details, I just don’t have a steady hand. So I’ll make them and enjoy it, but honestly, I am much better at the tasting part. ;)

  52. i LOVE to bake cookies and try different things – i just hate cleaning up after it! :)

  53. I try to be an adventerous cookie maker but am still trying to master royal icing! I would love this book though because it looks like it has some great ideas and inspiration for me to keep trying!

  54. I love making cookies with my two children . Love your website, so many fantastic ideas.

  55. Such amazing cookies! I just found your site and am getting ready to try some of your different things =)

  56. I love baking cookies!!! I love baking in general even when I don’t have a kitchen aid mixer to help speed mixing, it is always worth it in the end!
    I am definately an adventurous baker ;-)

  57. Bakerella, you always find the cutest things!

    Can’t I be bit of both? Well, honestly, I’m more of a taster but I wouldn’t say I’m content with that. I’d love to be more adventurous with my cookie decorating. Maybe this book or your blog will help that!

  58. I am definitely both, but I think I lean towards the adventurous side. I am always looking for fun new recipes (which is one reason I love your website!)

  59. Wow, insanity lives in this book. Wouldn’t it be fun to go there?

  60. I’m a content taste tester by day and an adventurous cookie maker by night. What, someone’s gotta bake for me! :)

  61. Cookie maker all the way! But in no way would I turn down a tasting!

  62. Taste Tester Extraordinaire. :)

  63. This is the cutest book ever!! I love making all types of cookies!! :) (and tasting them too! :) )

  64. I love being adventourous in new cookie designs and having others tasting the goodies.

  65. I am a bit of both – I love trying to create little pieces of art that are edible, too! I would love to win this book. I have spent a good bit of money collecting all sorts of cookie and cupcake books lately. They are so much fun to look at, and I love going through and marking the pages of things I hope to eventually try! Thanks for the awesome opportunity!

  66. I’d love to try some of these out! The book looks awesome.

  67. SOOO cute! Your posts are always amazing.

  68. I try, but usually FAIL.. I guess I should just label myself a content taste tester. :)

  69. I am planning a baby shower for my sister and would love to see what ideas this book has for that!!!

  70. I’m an aspiring baker and would love to take on the ‘cookie challenge’!

  71. I love to make cookies – but usually just stick to the traditional ones – chocolate chip, pb chocolate chip, shortbread, etc. Never get any complaints from the hubby!

  72. Omg! Everything is so cute I don’t think I would ever be able to eat those!

  73. Adventurous cookie maker!!!! Love the book….

  74. Adventurous Cookie Maker! My family get to be the taste testers! Hopefully most of time it’s a goof trade off!

    Would SOOOOO love to add this beautiful book to my collection! I have tons of cupcake and chocolate books- but NO cookie books.

  75. I LOVE trying out new and interesting ideas for food like this. I really like my food to be something to look at, as well as something to eat. Now maybe when I finish school and deliver my third child I could actually attempt something like this!

  76. I’ve done cupcakes, I’m pretty good at the cakes (I think?), love cake pops.. Tried cookies once but really want to try more!!!

  77. I’d love to get more adventurous, but right now I’m just trying to master rolled sugar cookies + royal icing.

  78. I am adventuresome all the way, baby! I love trying new recipes, new flavors, new looks. It’s a blast!

  79. I love making cookies and eating them too!

  80. Adventurous Cookie Maker AND Expert Taste Tester!

  81. Wow! these look amazing…I am an adventurous cake artist but am just now starting to dabble in the cookie world. I have so much fondant on hand right now…..covering cookies with it sounds like fun.

  82. I love all these cookies! My passion is making a delicious cookie look great as something else as well as tasting great! I would love a new cookie book.

  83. I’m not really a cookie person, when it comes to eating them. I more of the maker then the taster. On that note, I’m the chocolate type either. But that’s ok. Better for me. I make the chocolate desserts and then I’m not tempted to eat them :)
    Win Win.. Now Cheesecake..that’s a whole other story.

  84. I’m an adventurous cookie baker. Not necessarily successful, but adventurous!

  85. I would love to win this book! I love to bake cookies but usually stick to the yummy, less-pretty ones because they are devoured so quickly by my kids!

  86. Both. I love baking new cookies to try out myself!

  87. I have to say I’ve discovered you recently and I think you are just amazing! I made your cake balls and they are fabulously addictive!!

    As far as cookies go…I’ve always loved cookies. I love so many kinds of cookies it’s not even funny. I am definitely an adventurous cookie taster. I haven’t really gotten into making them as much as I’d like but I did start over the xmas holiday. I sent cookie packages to all my loved ones. It was so much fun to make them!!! I absolutely want to get into making more types of cookies though. Thanks for sharing this post and the book!!

  88. Your blog is amazing. Everything looks too cute to eat! I am an adveturous baker, but usually with less than stellar results. But practice makes perfect. I’ll get there some day.

  89. I would definitely consider myself an adventurous cookie master. And would love to also look at pretty pictures of cookies,

  90. I am an adventurous cookie maker.. I love coming up with new ideas (and using yours of course! :) Cookies are such a great way to express yourself through edible art!! i am known to be a taster too :P

  91. I am an adventerous cookie maker! I love trying new designs and recipes!

  92. I am just beginning to be an adventurous baker/cookie maker- and am excited to just keep doing more and more! But of course I have always been (and will continue to be) a happy to help taste tester! This book looks amazing!

  93. Would love to be a detailed cookie maker but, alas, time dictates that I am more a taster…

  94. I would have to say I’m the adventurous cookie maker! I prefer to leave the taste testing to my siblings… hehe…

  95. could i be both an adventurous cookie maker and a content taster?

  96. I love adventurous baking, although I could use about five times the counter space of my little apartment to really take on a challenge!

  97. Oh, they’re gorgeous! But I mostly like to look at the pictures!

  98. I would have to say I’m an ugly adventurous cookie maker. I’m all about trying new things, however, I can never get something to look pretty like you do.

  99. Wow! How beautiful these coockies are!!
    In case of baking I’m a real adventurous baker, because I’m fascinated by the different ways of baking you find in different countries – macarons, red velvet cake, pie, cupcakes, sacher torte, spekulatius, biscuit…

  100. taste tester, but we call that quality control at our house! :)

  101. I want to make them, stare at them, EAT them and give them away!! Absolutely beautiful little pieces of sugar art. Hope you had a wonderful Easter. God Bless you, your creativity and your sense of humor!!

  102. I’ve been told I’m pretty darn adventerous. It’s not unusual for me to spend over an hour decorating one cookie if the mood and inspiration strikes. It’s my stress release and I love it.

  103. Love to have fun with my son making cookies. Our last out-of-the-ordinary cookie was witches fingers for halloween. Green butter cookies with blanched almond fingernails and red icing gel around the the nail bed. Truly gross looking, but very yummy! Would love to try the recipes in this book!

  104. I love to eat cookies!!!

  105. Adventurous Cookie Maker! :-)

  106. I love to make cookies! I love to eat cookies more!

  107. I am becoming more and more of an adventourous baker all of the time and l love taking little recipes and changing them up to use things I already have :)

  108. The holidays always provide an opportunity to be adventurous in the cookie and dessert department, but I also love to taste new creations when I see them at parties or other events.

  109. I like to bake simple cookies – the kind that you make so many times that you have the recipe memorized. But these cookies – oh my! I would definitely like to be the taste tester!

  110. i’m both!

  111. I’m taking cake decorating classes right now, so while I have not yet made beautiful cookies, I’m excited to give it a shot!

  112. I’m a somewhat adventurous cookie maker, but definitely a better taste tester. =) These are adorable!!!

  113. I used to be more of a taster but now that I have a 3 year old, she gets to play that role.

  114. I’m a bit of both. I love trying out new recipes of all kinds and flavor profiles but there are certain go-tos when I know it’ll be a winner every time. That book looks amazing!

  115. I’m much better at tasting the cookies than making them, but I’m also interested in learning how to make beautiful, fun desserts, including cookies!!

  116. I dabble in both. Of course I love eating them, but that’s not very good for my ever growing wasteline, I love making them, but I find I don’t have much time for that. So mostly I just dream! Dream of the possibilities and what they could taste like.

  117. I want to be an adventurous cookie maker..but I just don’t have the skills my grandmother did. I try though!!

  118. Love the cookies. I’ll have to try the macaroons at our next bbq.

  119. I am definitely more of an adventurous cookie maker (and collector)- I have abt 300 cookie cutters…this book would be a nice addition to my book collection too !!
    You are wonderful Bakerella ……..

  120. Looks like there’s a cookie for every occasion. So cute!

  121. I love your site Bakerella!

    Its always been my dream to have a baking website just like yours or to even one day maybe open up a bakery!

    I love baking and am always looking for more ways to make cute little cookies and cakes! cupcakes are my favorite!

    My boyfriend of 2 years and my sister are both extremely allergic to dairy, so they cannot eat most cookies and cakes. But I have been experimenting with recipes and working with substitutes because I think that everyone should be able to enjoy sweet little treats! it just breaks my heart when everyone around them can enjoy other things and they cant.

    anyways, amazing job on the site! it is by far my favorite! And i CANNOT wait for your book to come out!

  122. I love to try new and exciting recipes.

  123. For now, I’m a content taste tester. I aspire to be a creative cookie and cake maker. I doubt I will catch up to your talent, but at least I have fun trying all the techniques that you show here. Thank you for that.

  124. Love these cookies!!! They are so cute!!!!!

  125. I love to try new and FUN things.. The wedding cakes are just GREAT i’d love to try any make them! Thanks for the shot!

  126. I love trying new cookie ideas and have had a loy of fun with it, though I do have a few recipes that my family loves to eat again and again.

  127. Love the cookies and am so buying this book! I am very adventurous in the kitchen and love to bake sweets!

  128. You sure know how to reel a gal in. I read your post thinking that I must buy that book, and voila…a contest. I am a wannabe adventurous cookie maker and a professional cookie taster!

  129. Someday I’d love to become an avid cookie decorator but for now, I’m happy to taste.

  130. I’ll make ’em, and then I’ll eat ’em all. That’s just how I roll.

  131. Adventurous cookie maker for sure! …and I may sample some along the way. : )

  132. I’m an adventurous cookie maker. This book looks perfect for cookie adventure. :D

  133. I consider myself the adventurous one!!!

  134. I’m becoming an adventurous baker ever since we moved and I now have a very functional kitchen. These cookies look awesome and the book looks inspirational!

  135. I’d ‘venture to say I’d be content making and then tasting everyone of your beautiful cookies!

  136. I love making cookies! I recently tried my hand at homemade fondant and I’m getting more creative!

  137. Those cookies look fabulous!!! I love to bake but was not given the “decorating-abled” gene at birth. I’ll keep trying though!!

  138. Adventurous when I have the time. Love these cookies!

  139. I am new to cookie decorating and would love to have a book like this as a guide. Your cookies are beautiful!

  140. I am a more traditional cookie maker. But I am definitely willing to try my hand at the adventerous side!

  141. I am definitely a taste tester! The pictures from the book look amazing!

  142. I lean more towads focusing on making a yummy cookie than fancy decorating. But my sister loves to get creative like that, I would love to get this book for her!

  143. I would LOVE this book!

  144. I am cookie taster that likes to dabble in adventurous baking

  145. Usually I’m all about baking cakes but I’ve been known to whip out some cookies too. So I’ll go with adventurous cookie maker! :o)

  146. I like to mkae scinece-shaped cookies. One time for a lab meeting I made sugar cookeis iced to look like preti dished streaked with bacteria!

  147. While I’ve become more adventurous in baking this past year, that just means actually baking rather than sitting back and eating. That’s why I love this website, because it walk me through with pictures and makes me much more confident that I’m doing the steps correctly!

  148. I am a content taster but I love to bake other things besides cookies. Trying to think of what kind of birthday cake for my daughters up coming third birthday.

  149. I’m adventurous but I rarely have successful results. I do make plenty of things that TASTE good…so I guess at the end of the day thats what matters. :)

  150. My kids and I are definitely adventurous cookie bakers! We will always be taste testers, though; how else can you be a successful adventurous cookie baker?! :)

    Hope you are feeling better. We missed you :)

  151. I am an (semi)adventurous cookie baker/decorator! I just tried flood icing cookies the other day and was pretty happy with the result. As soon as school lets out, I plan on becoming very adventurous!

  152. Enjoy the cooking/baking but it all has one goal to be the taste tester.

  153. I’m definitely the adventurous cookie maker in the family. I love making new and different things, but my husband loves plain ordinary chocolate chip cookies, so that’s usually what I make. I know, it’s rough:)

  154. Cookie maker :D

  155. I am an adventurous cookie maker. I love baking. It’s a little bizarre but one of my favourite concoctions is the Bran Muffin Twinkie.

    You read correctly. I have a baking pan for making Twinkies. I was bored one day and played around with a few recipes and made a batch of bran muffin twinkies.

    Relatively simple, you can use any bran muffin recipe you like. Mine is vegan, and involves raisins, shredded coconut, shredded carrot, coconut milk, as well as a whole lot of bran.

    It’s actually one of my husband’s favourites. Which reminds me, I need to bake up another batch.

  156. I’m definitely more of a taster than a maker. I do love to bake, but the detail that those cookies require… And I’m just too much of a perfectionist. If they didn’t turn out exactly like the picture in the book, I’d sulk for days.

    So why am I commenting? Beeeeeecause I never win anything, so I doubt I’ll win this book! ;D

  157. Definitely a cookie maker over here!

    I love trying out new recipes, shapes and decorating styles! And my family loves eating them. (Okay, I like to eat them, too!)

  158. Adventurous Baker!

  159. I want to learn how to make all of these cookies!

  160. adventurous, but clearly not as adventurous as you!

  161. My girls would be in awe at this book! I like to make cookies, but I can never get the pretty ones to taste as good as they look.

  162. I am a crafty person so I aspire to be an adventurous baker but my talent in the baking department wains. So most of the time I am just a taster.

  163. Right up my alley! I would love to have that sitting on my coffee table!

  164. I’m an adventurous baker overall. Fortunately, all of my friends are adventurous eaters!

  165. Oh so glad to see you blogging again…you really don’t know how many times I came back to this site, only to see the mint brownies staring back at me…not that mint brownies are a bad thing. I just thought for sure they would be the end of me if I whipped up a batch after beginning a new diet. The brownies in front of me, and my passion for all things new was really having me wish to see a post from you, and here it is, all magnificently Spring! I will keep you in my prayers, that you are able to continue doing what you do so perfectly!
    I am a content taste tester, although I really should be more of an adventurous cookie maker. I love to slave in the kitchen, and while this book could become a hindrance to the pounds I have just pulled off my hips, I do have a feeling it could create wonderful bonds with friends as I send them love across the miles in the form of creatively expressed cookies!

  166. After having been a dedicated taste tester for a long time, I just got new baking equipment and a Kitchen Aid stand mixer. Now, I’ve switched to an adventurous baker!! :D

  167. The hats are adorable and the fondant flower punch is a great idea. I have little fondant cookie cutters, but that would be even easier! I’m a fairly adventourous cookie maker, but want to get more creative with icing them.

  168. Adventurous cookie maker!

  169. I dream of being a adventurous cookie maker but am mostly resigned to being a content taste tester.

  170. I want to try it all…..I really push my self to try to bake all kinds of cookies…love cookies that make a statement and get lots of attention.

  171. This book looks incredible… I honestly don’t know if I can wait to see if I win or if I should just order it now! You are so awesome.

  172. I am definitely an adventurous cookie maker! I love to make themed cookies for every occasion. Unfortunately I am not yet as adventurous as you are!

  173. I love to make cookies…and eat cookies. This book looks so fascinating, I’ve just gotten into cake decorating and different piping techniques, it would be fun to give this a try!

  174. Beautiful cookies!!! I’m a huge cookie baker, especially during the Christmas holidays. I bake for a month, freeze them and give them all away to those hard to buy for friends and family. I’d say I’m adventurous and would love to know how to decorate some of my cookies the way I’ve seen in the pictures here. I love baking!!!

  175. I am not too adventurous, I would like to be, just a little bit chicken and not enough time. Those hats are adorable. I guess I am a taste tester. The book looks awesome. Thanks

  176. Whoo!! I am soooo a content cookie taster but those pictures of the book have me inspired to try my hand at a more adventurous cookie baking style!

  177. It’s funny, I have a ton of cookie cutters (I keep acquiring them!) but I never make cookies. I prefer cake, so that’s what I end up making. But what I really like doing is decorating cupcakes… and this post has made me realise I could perfectly well do that with cookies…AND make them 3D.

  178. I’m definitely more adventurous when it comes to cookie making.

  179. definitely a taste cookie person. wish i had time to be more adventurous though, all my cookies are always round and boring!

  180. These are some AWESOME cookies. Bakerella, you did a fabulous with your version! Way to Go!

  181. both! but more on the baker part…

  182. I’d like to be a more adventurous cookie baker (and perhaps a less adventurous taster…). Thanks for the chance to enter. :)

  183. taste tester please!

  184. Definitely a content taster, but I would totally be willing to try making them too. If they don’t turn out, I can always eat the dough!

  185. Yummm!
    I love to make cookies, but I’m much better at eating them! :)

  186. ADVENTUROUS BAKER!!!!

  187. I would love to be an adventurous maker but I am not that talented, so I am content to be a content taster!

  188. Adorable!!!
    I am an adventurous cookie maker… but not as much right now as I’d like. My little ones keep me on my toes, but I LOVE to bake cookies~

  189. Amazingly beautiful!! …I have try these, just like ALLLLLL the thing you create..I want to do them ALLLLL!!!

  190. Your cookies turned out very cute, I’m sure they were a hit for dessert.

    With being an artist as well as a baker, it’s hard not to come up with my own creations. It doesn’t hurt to see what others have done though for inspiration.

    Definitely an adventurous baker.

  191. I would like to think that I’m an adventurous cookie maker. I love to try decorating cookies in fun ways. My husband is all about the taste testing ;)

  192. Those are so cute, I would make them for a tea party. I love making cookies!

  193. Honestly, I’m currently a taste tester, BUT I’ve always wanted to learn to decorate cookies/cakes to perfection. What a fun book!

  194. Cute, cute, cute!!!

  195. Thank you for the opportunity. You are always so generous. I would love the book!!

  196. So great ! I love to experiment with cookies, both making and eating them!

  197. Hi Bakerella!
    Cookie Adventurer, for sure :o)

  198. Those look great as always! Yes I think I am an adventurous cookie maker but I’m always in the mood to make some yummy chocolate chip cookies!
