With this simple recipe, you can make beautifully decorated fondant-covered cookies. These cookies will impress everyone with their delightful appearance and delicious taste, whether for a special occasion or just for fun.
Ingredients: 1 batch of sugar cookies. 1 batch of fondant. Food coloring optional. Powdered sugar for dusting.
Instructions: Prepare the sugar cookie dough as per your favorite recipe and cut out desired shapes using cookie cutters. Bake the cookies according to the recipe instructions and allow them to cool completely. While the cookies cool, prepare the fondant. If using store-bought fondant, knead it until it becomes pliable. If making homemade fondant, follow your chosen recipe. Optional: Add food coloring to the fondant and knead it until the color is evenly distributed. You can use different colors to create a variety of fondant decorations. Dust a clean surface with powdered sugar to prevent sticking. Roll out the fondant to about 1/8 inch thickness. Use the same cookie cutters you used for the cookies to cut out fondant shapes. Carefully lift the fondant cutouts and place them on top of each cooled cookie. Gently press down to adhere the fondant to the cookies. If desired, use additional fondant pieces to create decorative elements or add details to the cookies. Allow the fondant-covered cookies to set for a few hours before serving or packaging. Avoid stacking them to prevent smudging the decorations. Once the fondant has set, the cookies are ready to be enjoyed or shared!
