While making gingerbread snowflake cookies today I had a little extra dough and made these cute lollipop cookies.
If you don't want to use gingerbread, a sugar cookie dough would work just as well. They are deceptively easy to make and super cute.
Here's how to make them:
 |
| Roll out cookie dough 1/8 inch thick and cut an equal amount of rounds. Press a lollipop or candy apple stick in the center of half of the cookies. |
 |
| After baking it will look like this but you need to strengthen it with royal icing. |
 |
| Pipe royal icing around the stick and cookie. |
 |
| Top with a cookie and let set until hard and sturdy. |
 |
| With a piping bag and a #2 tip drizzle icing down the sides of the lollipop cookie. |
 |
| Also flood the top with icing. |
 |
| Immediately pipe lines of flood consistency red royal icing around the cookie using a #2 tip. Leave an open space in the center. |
 |
| Use a skewer to go through the lines in circles starting at the outside and working towards the center. |
 |
| That's all there is to it. Be sure to let the cookies dry before packaging. |
