Oreo Penguin Cookies
Ingredients
- Golden Oreo cookies – you will need two for each penguin
- White fondant
- Red fondant
- Orchid Pink petal dust
- Black sprinkles
Instructions
- You will want to paint the cookies with the dust first. That way they can dry completely while you are cutting out the fondant pieces.
- To make the dust “paint”, mix 1/8 tsp water with 1/4 tsp of dust. You can add just a touch more water if you would like it to be watered down a tad more. Stir it together with one of the brushes.
- Using a smaller brush, paint each cookie. This mixture will paint two cookies or three if you water the mix down.
- While the cookies are drying, roll out a handful of the red fondant. Use the tip of the heart cookie cutter to cut out a small beak. You may want to use a pair of kitchen scissors to cut the beak smaller.
- Next roll out a handful of the white fondant. Using the heart cookie cutter, cut out a heart of each face you will need. To make the white breast, use a small circle cook cutter. Cut out a circle, then use the same cookie cutter and cut half of the circle.
- To make the penguins arms, use the same cookie cutter and cut out two ovals for each set of arms you will need.
- While the fondant is still wet, attach the heart to one of the cookies. Then line up the bottom of the heart along the edge of the cookie. Attached 2 black sprinkles for the eyes then add on the red beak.
- When you attach the white breast to the other cookie, leave a little bit of the fondant over the edge. That will allow the fondant to stick together. Then attach the arms to the back of the cookie.
- And there you go! The cutest Penguin Heart Cookies ever!
