Angry Birds Sugar Cookies
It's my friend's 30th birthday today and I'm flying out to San Diego as we speak to help her celebrate this weekend! I didn't want to risk making a cake or cupcakes and having it confiscated at the security check point; so, I decided on something I can easily pack into my carry on bag, sugar cookies. She is as addicted to the Angry Birds game as I am so I knew this would be a cute and fun gift.
After sketching out the images and writing up the schematics, I got a bit nervous with how much work it would be for me. My sugar cookie decorating skills are very limited. But then, I realized that I could just use fondant! Having never tasted fondant on a sugar cookie, I definitely made sure that these cookies were nice and thick. I even found the greatest way to measure the thickness of the cookies; I rolled the dough out in between two chopsticks I had laying around which measured 1/4 inch thick exactly!

Hi, I love the angry bird. But I wonder how do you get the fondants colored nicely?
