March is a mere few hours away, which means St. Patrick's Day is right around the corner. Or...17 days and a few hours around the corner.
At any rate, after drooling over many food blogs as of late, I keep stumbling across beautiful cookies. Now, I love cookies AND I love beautiful things. Enter a recipe for chocolate sugar cookies (yes, please) and I'm sold. Soooo, I had to buy a shamrock cookie cutter and I just had to begin testing these cookies out in order to really perfect them within the next 17 days.
Piping the cookies with intensity. Note: cookie in left hand "on deck".
Flooding the cookies.
Filling in the flooding with a toothpick and frosted fingers.
Voila!
Louis' favorite.
My favorite.
I'm taking orders for cookies now so I can quit my day job. (Kidding. About the quitting part. I'll gladly accept offers for you to pay me to bake, however.)
