Ahh the joys of summer…. the sun, the pool, and the cookies? Well, when you’re as cookie obsessed as me, any season is a good excuse to make cookies! Here are a few cookies that celebrate the joys of summer. This weekend could be the perfect time to try a new design or improve your cookie skills. As with any craft, cookie decorating takes quite a bit of practice to master, but the nice thing is, it’s usually easy to find people willing to eat your “practice.”
To get you started, I’ve posted my favorite cookie recipe HERE
And a couple decorating tutorials are HERE and HERE.

Happy Cookie Decorating and Happy Summer!
These are adorable!!
Great work 🙂
Gorgeous and fun! Just the way summer should be. It is always a pleasure to see your cookies and edible art
These are all amazing! I wish I had the patience to bake and decorate sugar cookies! Not to mention the central air conditioning to bake at all during the summer! I think I'll just enjoy looking at yours! Love you!

I love all of your summer cookies
Dany and Jackie R.- I have such a collection of cookie cutters, I can't be sure where I bought individual ones, sorry! Here is a post where I've added several links to some of my favorite cookie cutter sites, http://glorioustreats.blogspot.com/2010/06/my-cookie-cutter-collection.html
Once again, you inspire me to make more and more cookies. I also wonder where you buy the bathing suit/bikini cookie cutters? My local stores only sell flip flops, martini glass and sunglasses. Thx in advance and kudos!!! Keep up the great work!
