Molly's baby shower. . . .part 2

Alright, so we had "Bun in the Oven" cookies for my sister Molly's baby shower favors, but what for the dessert table?

The invitations to the shower were these:

So, I went with pickles and ice cream cookies!


I was nervous about pickles....I mean, how cute can pickle cookies be, really. But, you know what, I actually loved them!


My lovely assistant (read: husband) made another template for the pickle shape. See how the edges are a little rougher than if I had used a cookie cutter?


I'll let you in on a little secret....I CANNOT pipe straight and even criss-cross lines. Oh, believe me when I tell you, these pictures are of the BEST cones!

When my husband came to take a look at them, I was lamenting the fact that I can't pipe straight lines. He said, "No, you can't...but keep them that way...they're whimsical." Reason #487 why I love that man. ♥

You've been warned...if you purchase these through the shop, your cones will have lines that are, um, "whimsical."



Happy Baby, Molly! I can't wait to find out if we will have a new little niece or nephew!!!
