Christmas Sugar Cookies & Cupcakes…Plus a Recipe

Monday, December 22nd, 2008

Well, the holidays have definitely kept me busy, so sorry for the lack of posts this last week! Thank you all for your sweet comments about the cookies. To answer many of your questions…I achieved the shimmered look by mixing a small amount of lemon extract and luster dust (whatever color you want) and then painted it on my cookie that was already iced with dried royal icing. The luster dust is edible of course and gives the cookies such a dramatic and rich look. Hope that helps!

So this post is going to be a mix of many recent orders and events that I have done…I hope you enjoy the photos! First up are adorable little snowmen made out of fondant. I used them as a topper for a Christmas cupcake order that I had. There were 78 of these little snowmen and it took quite a while to finish them all up, not to mention baking the cupcakes, frosting, and individually packaging them…

The photos from the event didn’t turn out too good, so sorry for the lack of photos of the finished product. Next up are some more photos of Christmas sugar cookies that my sister designed, plus a present cake I did for a recent birthday order.

Last, but not least are some photos of a recent kid’s cooking class I taught at Prep Kitchen Essentials. The theme was Christmas cookies and as you can see from the photos, the kids had a great time baking and decorating them!

So if you have never made Cinnamon & Sugar Palmiers before you have to try them out. They are so easy and soooo delicious! Hope you enjoy the recipe! Merry Christmas!

Cinnamon Sugar Palmiers

Makes 30-36 cookies

1/2 cup sugar
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 (17 1/4 ounce) package frozen puff pastry, thawed

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and lightly grease two baking sheets. In a small bowl, mix together the sugar and cinnamon. Unfold one of the puff pastry sheets on a clean surface. Sprinkle evenly with a quarter of the cinnamon sugar mixture. Gently press the cinnamon sugar into the pastry. Flip the pastry over and repeat. Roll up each long side of the puff pastry jellyroll fashion to meet in the middle, forming the V shaped Palmiers. Tightly wrap and place in the freezer for 5-10 minutes. Repeat with the other sheet of dough. Remove the first sheet from the freezer and slice the log into 18 1/2-inch thick slices. Place each slice two inches apart on one of the cookie sheets lined with parchment paper. Repeat with the other log. Place in the oven and bake for 10 minutes. Flip each of the pastries over and continue to bake for 7-8 minutes, or until crisp and pale golden brown. Transfer to a wire rack and cool.

Well, Thanksgiving has come and gone and I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did. I was lucky enough to go up to the mountains and stay in a cabin with all of my family for about 4 days…it was a blast and definitely hard to come back to reality. But alas I am home and find myself with Christmas season upon me! Last night we decorated my mom and dad’s house and hopefully I will find time to decorate my little apartment later this week. I absolutely LOVE Christmas time and find that it is the perfect season for baking and giving gifts. Here are some cupcake designs that I recently came up with for the holiday season. I hope you enjoy checking them out and find yourself making some of your own for Christmastime!

Some of the cupcakes are easier than others, and most of the techniques I have used I have blogged about in the past, so if you want more info about how to make them check out the links and browse my blog for help. These first cupcakes are ornament cupcakes. I used a variety of techniques from embossing with stamps to painting the fondant with a mixture of luster dust and lemon extract.

These next cupcakes are a little bit easier. You simple roll out colored fondant and cut out a Christmas shape with cookie cutters. Then brush or paint with luster dust and let the accent pieces dry. Next frost your cupcake and add your accent pieces. For the holly leaf accent just pipe red dots for the berries or roll them out of red fondant.

To make these poinsettia cupcakes just follow the instructions I gave in this previous post and you should be able to make them! I was going for the brown, light blue, and red color scheme, so that is why the center is light blue, but if you want to make them more realistic looking them pipe the center yellow.

These next two cupcakes were make with modeling chocolate. I frosted the cupcakes and rolled the edges in crystal sugar. Then I used the modeling chocolate to form a rustic mistletoe branch and a little bow.

I love packaging these cupcakes individually in these clear boxes (4″x4″x4″) and then putting some M&M’s around them. They are great gifts and not too expensive.
