How to Make Eat Me Cookies

— Ingredients —

butter
1/2 cup butter
white sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
egg
1 egg
vanilla
3 tsp vanilla
flour
1.5 cups flour
salt
1/2 tsp salt
baking soda
1/2 tsp baking soda
cocoa powder
3 tsp cocoa powder
powdered sugar
1 cup powdered sugar
milk
2 tsp milk
light corn syrup
2 tsp light corn syrup
food coloring
food coloring
sprinkles
sprinkles

— Instructions —

  1. Cream butter and sugar.
  2. Mix in egg and 2 teaspoons of the vanilla.
  3. Whisk flour, salt, and baking soda in a separate bowl. Then, mix into dough.
  4. Set aside a small (palm-sized) amount of dough to make chocolate flavored. Mix the cocoa powder into this dough.
  5. Wrap or cover both types of dough, and chill (about 1 hour).
  6. Once chilled, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  7. For checkerboard cookies, make small squares of chocolate and vanilla dough, and stick or seal together to make a single cookie as in the picture.
  8. Roll out remaining dough and cut out shapes with round, flower, or star cookie cutters.
  9. Place cookies on a prepared sheet, and bake until golden (about 8 minutes).
  10. Transfer cookies to cooling rack. While they cool, make icing by mixing powdered sugar, milk, corn syrup, and remaining vanilla. Separate icing into bowls, and make different colors as desired with food coloring. (This icing dries fast, but looks very shiny and Disney style.)
  11. Decorate cookies with sprinkles and icing, and enjoy!
