RABBIDS INVASION COOKIES

Here is the photo which I used for my paper cookie cutter.

I print a copy and cut out near the lines. I put this on the dought and cut with a knife. 

First I outlined and flooded the head and the body. I imediatelly flooded the pink stomach. I left for one hour to dry. Then I outlined and flooded the ears with white and imediatelly with pink. Then I made the eyes and mouth.

EASTER CHICKS / PILIĆI

I'm not happy with the consistency of the icing, but I made these cookies so quickly - I didn't have time to test the fluency. I didn't wait the icing dried right. But these cookies are so cute... I want show them to you. I made them for my son.

I use a egg cookie cutter.

First I outlined with light yellow, then I flooded them with a more fluent yellow. I wait for two hours then I started with the eyes, beak and wings. My inspiration was the Sleeply bird from the Pocoyo cartoon with all facial expressions.

EASTER BUNNIES / ŠARENI ZEČIĆI

Šareni zečići!

Stiže proljeće, brzo će Uskrs pa evo i mojih proljetnih cvjetića, uskrsnih jaja i zečića.

Umijesila sam tijesto od:

750 gr brašna (glatkog)
250 gr maslaca (ili margarina)
250 gr šećera u prahu
4 jaja
1 vanilijin šećer
1 pecilni prašak
strugana kora jednog limuna
prstohvat soli

Ostavila sam ga u frižideru pola sata. 
Kekse sam pekla od 15-20 minuta na temperaturi od 180 °C u već zagrijanoj pećnici ovisi o modelu i veličini keksa.

Kroz vrijeme sam prikupila različite izrezivače. Na ovaj sam emocionalno vezana, s njim mi je moja mama u djetinjstvu radila kekse...

Ovaj sam kupila u Plodinama.

A ovaj sam dobila nedavno na poklon.

Za glazuru sam koristila

3 bjelanjka
3 žlice limunovog soka
600 gr šećera u prahu

Pripremila sam boje. Žuta, narančasta,roza,zelena, plava i ljubičasta. Ja sam narančastu napravila miješajući žutu i crvenu, a ljubičastu miješajući roza i plavu.

Treba pogoditi točnu gustoću glazure. Na slikama se vidi kako mi je zelena ostala pregusta, keksi nisu glatki - poznaju se tragovi ukrašavanja. Nastavkom broj 3 sam iscrtala vanjski rub keksa, odmah sam ga ispunila istom glazurom. Keks sam tresla lijevo-desno kako bi se glazura zagladila. Sa strane u posebnoj vrećici imala sam bijelu glazuru nešto tečnije gustoće s kojom sam odmah - isti tren - nacrtala bijele točke. Tako se točke stope s glazurom.

Evo ih na tanjuru
