One Picture, One Food — Special Cookie Dough
So I was kind of craving something sweet today, and I said to myself, why should I crave something I can make myself? I stood up and prepared my ingredients for a special cookie dough. Using the following recipes;
Ingredients |
|---|
- 250g butter
- 1 cup of icing sugar
- 1 egg yolk
- 2 tbsp milk
- 2 ½ cups flour
- ½ cup corn flour
- 1 tsp vanilla flavor
- Pinch of salt
| Method of Preparation |

- I creamed the butter and icing sugar together. Then I add the egg yolk, milk, and vanilla flavor and set aside. In another bowl I mixed the flour, cornflour, and salt. I added the dry ingredients to form a soft dough.
- On a lightly floured board, I rolled out the soft dough. Then I shaped the dough using a cookie cutter. I greased and sprinkled a little bit of flour on the baking tray, then I placed the neatly cut dough on the baking tray.
I baked the dough for about 15–20 minutes in a preheated oven (at a medium heat). At this point I was just staring at the remaining icing sugar, then an idea hit my head: if someone can invent a cookie recipe and shortbread, then why can't I invent mine? So I went to work using this recipe.
Ingredients
- 2 cups icing sugar
- 1 tbsp CMC
- tbsp dissolved gelatine
- 2–3 tbsp water
- 1 tsp vanilla flavor
- Food color (green)
- Mixed sprinkles
Method of Preparation |

I sift the icing sugar into a bowl. Add the CMC and mix well. I added the dissolved gelatine. Then I added water little by little until I got a smooth icing consistency, after which I added the vanilla flavor and mixed it properly.
At this point I decided to make it look more colorful, so I added the green food color and stirred evenly. I spread the icing onto the cooled biscuits. Then I sprinkled the icing with mixed sprinkles before the icing sets.
- I allowed it to dry completely, then I got this beautiful and tasty snack.
