Fall Time Cookies and Cupcake Inspiration


Fall cookie and cupcake inspiration here...
    and the BEST SUGAR COOKIE RECIPE TOO! from me, S.E.! 

Best Sugar Cookie Cut Out Recipe

ingredients 
1 cup butter softened
1 cup+ 2 tbsp. granulated sugar
1 egg
1 1/2 tsp. extract -- pure vanilla, or other
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
3 cups flour

Mix well!  Roll, cut, and bake at 350 degrees just until set, lightly golden on bottom.  

This sugar cookie icing is a lot like our favorite Eat n' Park cookies!!!  It's a color flow icing that's self leveling and perfect for fill in and piping!  We love it! 

Best Sugar Cookie Icing ~ Color Flow

ingredients
3 cups powdered sugar
4 tbsp. water
1 1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract or other
2 1/2 tsp. corn syrup
a few drops lemon juice if desired

Mix well until the consistency of glue.  Add more powdered sugar for thicker consistency.  Use gel food coloring.  Just smooth it on with a spatula or spoon and it also works great in a piping bag. Add your sprinkles quickly before the icing sets.  Let dry for several hours before packaging.  If you really want that professional look, start by outlining your images with royal icing, then use color flow to fill in.  

Here's a look at my favorite fall time cookies!  I have decorated a lot of cookies over the years, but these are my favorites!
