BBQ Cookies

We had a small get-together at our house this weekend, mostly to hang out and cool off with friends and their kids by the pool.  It's HOT here in Arizona, so pool time is a must!  So, we threw some burgers and dogs on the bbq and made a day of it.

For fun, I made these sugar cookies with a half batch of dough I had in the freezer and leftover marshmallow fondant.  I borrowed the idea from Meaghan at The Decorated Cookie and used Americolor Food Writer pens for the 'art'.  I also let the kiddos decorate cookies too, and as usual, they had a blast making their own art!

This is such a fun, easy way to jazz up cookies and make them festive for any occasion, even a little 'ol bbq.

Oh. my. goodness. How amazing are you? These are fantastic! Thanks for my shout out... I really have to have some sort of link on my site to such things. I love all the labels, too!

They are so cute. You still have to be able to draw decently, I don't think mine would look as cute - but maybe I will try!
