Rim 'O the Cup Sugar Cookies


Cookies that hang on the edge of your coffee or tea cup, is that not adorable? I had never seen such before. My daughter discovered these cutters and gave me them to me for Christmas. Thanks Jessi, I love them. It came with 4 different shapes (I only used 3 of them this time). The package has a recipe on it, but I used my standard sugar cookie recipe. To make sure the cookies didn't expand too much while cooking, I put the cut out shapes in the freezer before baking them. I think I might do a bit more decorating on them the next time I make them. I outlined the cookies with royal icing and filled in the round cookies with icing. Outlining the cookies before icing the whole cookie keeps the icing contained - especially important on these since any icing in the slot might keep them from fitting on the edge of the cup.
