Easter Bunny Silhouette Cookies

We are just few days away from Easter, I hope you are already preparing to celebrate this big feast. 


I love to decorate my table with decorated cookies
as you may imagine and I am always looking for practical ideas or ways to multitask my cookies, and I will share with you how to make a bunny silhouette cookie using your cookie cutter as a template and share some other ideas of Easter cookies.

It is really easy to make and it will add a cute touch to your table. 

You will need...

*  Your favorite cookie dough (click here for my favorite)
*  Square cookie cutter
*  Rabbit cookie cutter
*  Royal icing medium and flooding consistency
*  2 Pastry bag, couplers and decorating tip #2
*  Americolor food gel in Turquoise and Black
*  Edible black marker


PROCEDURE:

1) Bake a square cookie and let it cool, prepare a pastry bag with medium consistency white royal icing and tip # 2.


2) Trace the bunny in the center of your cookie using your marker,  outline the border of the rabbit  and the border of the square with white royal icing. 

3)  Prepare flooding icing in light turquoise to fill up  the square and black for the bunny.

4)  Flood the square with turquoise royal icing and let it dry for 6-8 hrs.

5)  When the turquoise icing is dry, flood the bunny with black icing and let it dry completely. 




6)  Prepare some firm medium consistency royal icing in  black and fill up a pastry bag and with tip # 2 make some little dots all around the cookie. 

7)  You can write down the name of each guest on the cookie or just add a little detail that represent each of your guest, for example, you can add some pearls to the Mother Bunny, or some glasses to the Grandpa Bunny, or a bow to the Sister Bunny.

What I like the most of decorating cookies is that you have endless posibilites to make your own creations. 

Happy Easter Everyone!!
