I would like to take credit for these cookies, but I really can't. They were actually my little boy's idea.
Last year around this time, I had a special Valentine's Day project in mind for his class, so I asked him what kind of cookie he'd like to take to school. I was thinking lips or hearts...something along those lines. However, as usual, ol' Evan was on a whole different wavelength than me. He wanted Spiderman...
At first I tried to talk him out of it, desperately explaining that Spiderman didn't look very much like a Valentine's Day Cookie. I had been bitten by the Valentine bug and was absolutely NOT in the mood for boy stuff.
Then, suddenly, it hit me! There was a way to please us both. With a little bit of adjustment, I could have my hearts, and Ev could have Spidey!
We had so much fun making them, that I decided to share. It's a simple fun project for mom and kids! All you need besides icing are these! {Click on the link to purchase}
I put together a simple slide show to show you how it's done! Enjoy!
Love it! I need to get me some edible markers!

Ryan loved these! Guess what I'll be making in the next few weeks!!
ReplyDeleteThese are awesome! I wanted to let Debra know that I found a different brand of edible markers at JoAnn's Fabric/craft store.
ReplyDeleteWow... these are fantastic!! I was never good at taking a basic shape and making something interesting with it. This just shows how creative and talented you are!!
ReplyDeleteThe cookies look wonderful, and I've spent entirely too many hours digging through your blog, looking at all the goodies. It cheers me up when I'm down! Thanks so much for sharing!
OR debra, you can do wet on wet with the web. Just sayin'.
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to tell you thank you for your sweet comment. My dad is home and doing better!
ReplyDeletewhat a great "boy" cookie for Valentine's day!!! LOVE it!
ReplyDeleteThis is so cool i love it!And the slide show is cool but is there a way to print out the pictures so I can see what to do in the kitchen?
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry, I don't, but I slowed the slides down a bit, and I have a suggestion. I would draw out six or seven hearts (however many steps there were), and draw each step as a reference =) Hope this helps!
ReplyDeleteThese are fantastic. I love heart shape on these.
ReplyDeleteThis a great cookie design. So cool.
