Heart Cut-Out Cookies – Outlining, Flooding

This is my second attempt at this decorating technique. Do you think they look any better? I can see a lot of mistakes.

If you have any tips for me I would really love to hear them. It took me hours to do these and I’m not all that happy with them.

But then I have to admit my depression and anxiety have been bothering me lately, as usual. Well, some days are better than others.

That’s the first batch. As you can see in the background I have more to do. It took me literally hours to decorate these.  If you’d like to read the how-to post, it’s here.  The recipes for the cookies and frosting are also in that post.

This next photo is my second batch, which also took me hours to do.  The frosting was a little too thin. I’m wondering if the food coloring gel made it that way.  I’ll have to research that.

 

I know they look better than the ones I used to do when I just used a knife to decorate them.  Well, maybe my next ones will look better.  I hope!  Like I said, if you have any tips for me, I would love to hear them!

Thanks for stopping by!  I really want to make friends with you all.  I guess I’m to anxiety-ridden to just talk to people on Facebook.  But know, I appreciate you coming here!
