Directions:Cookie Glaze
Dissolve syrup in warm water. Mix in flavoring, sugar and white coloring on low speed until you have smooth glaze. Store glaze in a covered plastic container. DO NOT REFRIGERATE - it will keep for 1 week. Before glazing cookies, warm the glaze briefly in the microwave and stir thoroughly. If using other colors remove the desired amount, add color and stir again thoroughly. Either dip the cookies in glaze or use a small squirt bottle to decorate.
Cookies
Cream butter and sugar until well mixed. Beat in the egg and vanilla. In separate bowl mix together flour, salt and baking soda. Slowly add the dry mixture to the creamy mixture until well blended. Chill for 1 hour. Roll out dough between parchment paper or plastic wrap. Cut dough with cookie cutters. Turn cookie over and lay an 8 in. cookie stick on the cookie so the stick goes at least 1/2 way up the cookie (this will help keep it from breaking off. Take a small piece of dough and gently rub it into the cookie to cover the stick. If the cookie are cut thick you can just press the stick up through the cookie. Place cookies on a baking sheet without overlapping sticks. Bake in a preheated to 350º oven for 8-10 min. Cool for 2-3 minutes on cookie sheet, then remove from baking sheet and cool completely on a cooling rack before decorating. |

Notes: For the last 8-10 years I've had a cookie decorating party at my house at Easter. We make tons of cookies and frosting with lots of sprinkles. The kids get to use as much frosting as they want and there is a no micromanaging the sprinkles by parents rule. This is my favorite event of the year. We usually top it off by decorating eggs and of course we spend all day eating and visiting with family and friends.
